What are interim executives?

Interim executives are highly-qualified leaders who are ready to step in on short notice (within 24-48 hours), begin contributing on their first day, and are a temporary placement (typically 3 to 6 months). This interim executive acts as your full-fledged employee during this period. They are there to manage through change (rather than to consult or advise) and are thus fully accountable for their results. They can even help with selection and onboarding of your permanent hire if needed.

Private Equity and Venture Capital

Balance between Vision and Implementation

Private equity and venture capital investments are always a risk; but, that risk can be greatly minimized with a strong talent core, both within the PE/VC firm itself and within the portfolio company. Even if the start-up does not have a strong existing senior leadership team, this core can be built on the foundation of new funding.

Ultimately, the partnership between a PE/VC firm and its portfolio company must be composed of a balance between vision and implementation — the vision of what a company can and should be and the acumen to implement the strategic plans that will drive that vision to success. A track record of previous achievement is especially vital since launching a start-up and leading it from pre-revenue to profitability presents unique challenges when compared to the acumen required to guide an existing organization.
