The power of bringing experts together in one room to share insights amplifies the potential for transformative outcomes, and the Renovata & Company Platform Events programme strives to do just that.   The Private Equity world is at a particular point of inflexion where value creation is concerned and so we were thrilled to welcome a room of investors, operators and advisors to our inaugural PE Breakfast last month.   The event brought together industry experts Josephine Hus, Michael D'Onofrio, and Ramon de la Sota, who shared their first hand perspectives and experience during a panel discussion organised and expertly moderated by Emma Roderick.   Today, we are pleased to share our comprehensive insights overview on Redefining Transformation for Value Creation.   The discussion spanned critical themes, from the advent of the Chief Transformation Officer to the strategic roles of Operating Partners, offering a roadmap for integrating transformational strategies with organisational objectives to drive substantial value creation.   Our thanks to all of our panelists and the Renovata & Company Platform team for bringing this thought-provoking discussion to life.   If you would like to to learn about upcoming events or to explore opportunities for involvement in our 2024 events program as a partner, speaker, or guest, we invite you to connect with Julia Barber, Director of Platform Engagement. #privateequity #leadership #transformation #technology

Why do 70% of M&A initiatives fail to deliver expected value? At our recent M&A event, we delved into the crucial strategies needed for navigating success in an unpredictable economic environment. As part of this, Anna Fairhurst, M&A specialist at Q5, shared her expertise on how to maximise M&A value through the 4 key pillars of M&A success: ambition, alignment, accountability and adaptability. Anna also drew attention to the importance of applying an ‘organisational health’ lens to M&A and Integration by considering how leadership and culture can be used as a critical value lever alongside robust processes and governance. Keen to discover the strategies and insights shared? Dive into the key takeaways from this event here: https://lnkd.in/eW-Nb6ke If you would like more information on how Q5 can help your M&A venture, we’d love to chat!

I’m so excited to be making this announcement today! It feels like the culmination of everything I have been working towards and yet, it’s really just the beginning. When I founded Ascension, it was with the intention of addressing stress and burnout in the workplace. It became apparent very quickly that stress was the end result of what was really going on and a lot of that came from company culture. In companies with high customer and employee retention (indicative of culture), the incidents of stress were lowered or isolated; contrasted with companies scoring low in retention and talent attraction where stress and burnout were statistically more significant. The number one link between all of it was leadership. I started to focus more on conscious heart-based leadership. How leaders show up is crucial to everything in the business which ultimately impacts the bottom line. Today I am so excited to join as a Partner with Advantary Capital Partners where I will continue to build on everything I have developed up to this point. Advantary is a true market leader in the field of investment. I love their hands-on, integrative approach and being able to bring conscious heart-based leadership to the executives of growing businesses assists with their sustainable growth goals. I am looking forward to continuing to expand Advantary's offerings to accelerate a company's growth and success.

We don't throw the baby out with the bathwater... Most of the businesses we work with, are established businesses. They already have a Vision, a Mission & Values. We don't want to change that. We just follow the EOS Proven Process & help them work together, facilitating the conversations to simplify things. SIMPLIFY - It's the first of the 5 Leadership Abilities & it is so strong! If you can simplify the message, it is easier for people to get on board & share that Vision. Provident has already done some amazing things & it was awesome to hear founder, Steve Owens', story of how Provident was started & the values that have driven & continue to drive the organisation forward. Our process drew out all that experience & helped the team to get clear on their Vision, Values & Core Focus. It didn't fundamentally change, but with the simplification, it took it up a level ⭐️ And the bonus is that because the whole Leadership Team was involved, we all clearly understand how we got there & how to articulate it. Such an awesome day with a passionate & driven team. Thanks for trusting me with the EOS Proven Process 💖 #EOSImplementer #VisionaryLeadership #EOSImplementor EOS Worldwide

Earlier this week, I spent the day at the Nasdaq Marketsite in New York for this year's Board Leadership Forum. There were many great insights from the packed agenda of panels with experienced board directors, but one quote really stood out: 'Iron sharpens iron.' We are in an era where boards are challenged with escalating risks — from talent management and geopolitical instability to activist shareholders and emerging technologies. Robust discussions at the board table, both with management and among members, are essential for a well-functioning, collaborative whole. So: Ask that question. Make that opposing point. Hold space for respectful disagreement. Drive the conversation forward. We can all bring our diverse perspectives to the table and strengthen our governance practices together.

🚀 The Fractionals has officially launched! 🚀 After watching the US fractional market explode over the last two years - with massive adoption and a rapidly growing ecosystem - I’m convinced that fractional leadership is the future here as well.

I was honoured to join Alexandra Reiner and Luc van Emmerik on the panel at our kick-off event, hosted by the fantastic Willem de Vries and Lize Hong (the masterminds behind The Fractionals).
