In the latest episode of the Brilliant People Podcast, Acertitude's Global Head of Marketing & Strategy, Linnea Jungnelius, and Acharya Capital Partners’ Managing Partner, David Acharya, discuss the common challenges that lower middle market businesses face. Middle market companies often face resource constraints. As David puts it, “One of the first things we do is sit down and ask, “What are you missing?” The key is to bring the right talent into the right roles and ensure there's sufficient support across the organization. This approach serves as a guide when prioritizing investments in people to drive growth: 1) When you acquire a company, assess whether you have a good management team that can supplement and support the organization. 2) Hire the right people. 3) Promote from within. 🎧 Learn more by listening to S2 E7: https://lnkd.in/eM_WuBWr #brilliantpeopleatwork #independentsponsor #privateequity #dealsourcing

The CFO of the future will be more than just a financial steward; they will be a pivotal strategic partner, leading the charge in navigating an increasingly complex business landscape. Ryan Niemann, serial CEO and Operating Partner, thinks, "The ability to drive data analytics companywide and improve decision-making will be paramount." This new breed of CFO will harness the power of data to not only forecast and manage risk but also to uncover growth opportunities and shape the overall strategic direction of the company. Their role will be defined by agility, foresight, and the capacity to influence decisions at every level of the organization.

As an independent sponsor, David Acharya, Managing Partner of Acharya Capital Partners, is responsible for all aspects of a deal: sourcing, financing, performing due diligence, closing, meeting expectations, and profitability. As a result, middle market companies gain from the concentrated attention and personalized, hands-on approach that independent sponsors provide. The capacity to dedicate greater 1:1 focus on each portfolio company is highly appealing, along with the enhanced flexibility and agility in deal structuring that sets them apart from traditional private equity firms. 🎧 For more of David’s learnings, tune in to S2 E7 of the Brilliant People Podcast: https://lnkd.in/eM_WuBWr #brilliantpeopleatwork #independentsponsor #privateequity #dealsourcing

🔴 Effective Marketing Strategies That Build Rapport and Fuel Deal-making 🔴 David Acharya, Managing Partner of Acharya Capital Partners, believes there are three core strategies and strengths that have increased his marketing effectiveness and ability to source deals: 1) Booking face-to-face meetings: Having a conversation filled with personal and professional stories and learnings. 2) Utilizing technology: Leveraging LinkedIn, podcasts, and CRM systems to help engage with the middle market community. 3) Picking up the phone: When a mutually relevant opportunity arises, nothing beats the value of an old-fashioned phone call to create meaningful connections. 🎙️Want more of David's insights?

Acertitude, the global executive search firm dedicated to unleashing human potential, is excited to announce its recognition in Hunt Scanlon’s roundup of the Top 40 most prominent executive search firms dedicated to cyber security and technology. This distinction is a nod to the ever expanding convergence of web, cloud, social, and mobile technologies. "We're delighted and very proud of this recognition by Hunt Scanlon," said Tim Cook, Partner and Cyber Practice Leader. "It has been an honor to have acted as a trusted advisor to both clients and candidates across the international cyber security space over many years now. We have seen the emergence of the Chief Information Security Officer as a highly influential and important member of the senior leadership team. Done well, this is a role that deeply understands digital risk and how to reduce it, requires a current interest in geopolitics and threat actors, and one which carries enormous leadership responsibility during times of cyber incidents and global tension. In response to a greater focus on retention, development and succession planning by our clients, we have developed an assessment service called the Cyber Leader Impact Program (CLIP). CLIP includes interviews, references, storytelling and AI tools to provide a personalised development plan for individuals in the cyber function and the cyber practices of consulting firms. We look forward to continuing to support our cyber clients with outstanding individuals who will keep our work places and country safe." #acertitude #unleashinghumanpotential #executivesearch #executiverecruitment #cybersecurity #cybertechnology

In the ever-evolving landscape of leadership, planning for succession at the CEO level is a critical yet often overlooked aspect of organizational strategy. The question, "Have you lined up a successor for your CEO position(s)?" prompts a crucial examination of whether businesses are prepared for a seamless transition in leadership. Effective succession planning not only ensures the continuity of vision and strategy, but also safeguards the organization against potential disruptions that can arise from unexpected leadership changes. #privateequity #portfoliocompany #CEO #successionplan
