Truth: The ranks of M&A professionals are filled with walk-on players who previously had ZERO experience running an M&A function. This is because #SaaS #CEO's have a preference for appointing smart, inquisitive, and trustworthy people into the role versus bringing on stranger. BUT, what does good look like? What are the winning traits and things a walk on needs to know and do to drive the right outcomes? In this episode of In/organic, Loran Gutt shares his ten years worth of learnings after taking on a walk on role himself. Our discussion covers the winning traits of an corporate development head, what are the important partnerships to build within the business, what is a good baseline framework, and some cautionary advice. This is required listening for CEO's considering appointing a walk-on player, or someone who took on the role recently. Listen, like and share! https://lnkd.in/eZkRicn9
