Great overview of West Monroe from our CEO Kevin McCarty at the recent Axios BFD event in which he discusses how we advise private equity firms on a variety of deals, particularly in technology, organizational structure, and processes. He refers to West Monroe as a "best-kept secret" in the industry, participating in around 500 advisory deals annually with major private equity names. Kevin mentions how the firm prides itself on its multidisciplinary approach, blending technology with business insights to make complex tech concepts understandable for investors and C-suite executives alike. And how the firm emphasizes the importance of being "multilingual" in the boardroom, effectively communicating across different business functions, and helping clients realize the benefits of digitalization. Kevin also touches on West Monroe's partnership with Michael Dell's family office, MSD Partners, highlighting the firm's commitment to broad-based employee ownership. He mentions how this model has not only resulted in significant employee wealth but also fosters a high-performance culture with low attrition rates. He also covers the trend of employee ownership gaining traction within private equity, with firms like KKR adopting similar approaches. Finally, the conversation shifts to current trends in deal-making, noting a decrease in deals advised from 2021 to 2023 but anticipating a resurgence in 2024. Kevin observes that West Monroe is seeing an increase in sell-side preparedness engagements, preparing companies for market entry. #pe #privateequity #consulting #leadership #innovation #duediligence #techdiligence #MandA #mergers #acquisitions #VC #digitalservices #axios #axiosbfd #dell #msd #digital #digitalbusiness

Execution is the key ingredient that fuels success in the business world. It's not just about having a strategy; it's about rolling up your sleeves, facing challenges head-on, and consistently delivering results. This is what separates the great businesses from the rest - the ability to grind, take hits, and still push forward. In the game of business, execution trumps everything - including competitors and strategies. Those who can execute effectively are the true champions, the ones who step into the arena and make things happen. Today, I want to celebrate someone who embodies the spirit of execution like no other - Dr. Akeem Shina Oyewale as he takes on the role of Vice President of the Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers. His dedication to getting things done, no matter the obstacles, is truly commendable and serves as an inspiration to us all. I congratulate the Institute for striking the bull's eye in person of Dr Akeem. At Marble Capital Limited, we pride ourselves on our commitment to execution excellence. We don't just talk the talk; we walk the walk and deliver top-notch service that drives vallue for our stakeholders and clients day in and day out. Join me in congratulating Dr. Akeem Shina Oyewale, or as we fondly call him, Mr. 'Execution, Execution, Execution'."
