When playing youth sports, we recall being told not to celebrate a goal until it actually went into the net. It sounds silly, but we mentally scored a goal on more than one occasion, only to find the shot blocked. More at: https://lnkd.in/eTRbH7ct #chasebetter

About us
Chenmark is a team of small businesses committed to each other and to the constant pursuit of better. We work with retiring owners and entrepreneurs to provide liquidity, preserve legacies, and position companies for long-term success. Chenmark companies share a commitment to: Chasing Better - We believe unequivocally in our potential. We maintain the discipline to do the little things necessary to achieve it. We cultivate the grit required to stay the course when things don’t go our way, and we maintain a sense of urgency. We choose to chase better because we want to run, not walk, toward greatness. Keeping Score - We believe in the power of competition and acknowledge that the scoreboard doesn’t lie. We believe data is more valuable than anecdote or opinion, but we also recognize that results are snapshots and not final judgements. Playing the Long Game - We believe consistency of performance over time is what counts. We think in decades, not years. We believe that in the long run, relationships matter, and we know that we can’t effectively take care of our companies if we don’t first take care of ourselves and our families. Putting the Team First - We believe the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. We are prepared to do whatever is needed to help the team win. When we lose, we accept responsibility. When we win, we share credit. By working for Chenmark, we commit to holding ourselves to the highest standards of integrity, especially when no one is watching.
