Values

As business owners and employers, we feel a responsibility to build organizations with lasting value.

We respect entrepreneurial leaders who have created tremendous value. We understand that it is difficult to delegate or disengage. We want to make sure you’re comfortable when it is time to build around you, redefine your role, and create a thoughtful transition to the next stage.

We do not have a fixed investment horizon or any external time restrictions. We do not demand a fixed timeline for an owner’s departure. Building for the long-term requires patience, collaboration, and flexibility.

We do what we say. We want to build open and honest partnerships with you and your people.

We want to be contributing members of the team, and that includes taking the time to develop personal relationships and getting our hands dirty. It doesn’t mean that we elbow our way into situations when it’s not in the long-term best interest of the team.

We believe in the power of the entrepreneurial spirit. We do not want to stifle that as we grow the business. To the contrary, we want to harness it and spread it throughout an organization.

To remain relevant in an ever-changing world, we think that a business, and every one of its employees, needs to ruthlessly focused on the needs of their customers.
