How to Position Yourself as a Private Equity Expert

Our Next Private Equity Job club will feature Kit Lisle,Founder of the Operators – The Collaborative Community for PE-Backed Execs

When a PE-Backed executive is extremely successful, he/she creates value, gets the business sold, profits from the experience, and then: is out of a job! Career transition situations happen often (an average of every 36 months) and last for months, sometimes many months.

On the other side of the equation, private equity groups need and want talent on an ongoing basis. In a perfect world, they would have access to a Bench of curated, experienced talent that expands and contracts as needs arise and challenges are resolved. Position yourself as an expert, consultant, fractional or interim exec, executive in waiting/in residence, a river guide, or another form of flexible talent. If you can bring focused, precision expertise to solve a value creation quandary with certainty, you will benefit in a number of ways while you await your next full-time opportunity.

Stay active, engaged, using your intellectual horsepower
Solve dilemmas
Test drive a new PE Group (and prove yourself to them)
Be considered for future opportunities
Earn compensation while in transition

Learn how all of this is possible, and how to position yourself for success during transition at our session on May 22.
