💥 Most M&A Deals Fail. So Why Are We Ignoring the Gold Mine Inside Our Own Businesses?
70–90% of M&A deals fail to create value.
And yet, executives, boards, and advisors still chase acquisitions like it’s the only path to growth.
But what if the smarter move is right under your nose?
Last week, I shared a keynote with financial services professionals on how to bring a private equity mindset to your business—or your clients’—without the complexity of a buyout.
Here’s the playbook:
✅ Get laser-sharp on what actually drives value in your business (hint: not all revenue is equal).
✅ Optimize operations—not to cut your way to greatness, but to free up capital and reinvest where it matters.
✅ Align culture and incentives so your strategy doesn’t die at the execution stage.
The smartest PE firms are doing this every day.
So why not use their tools—100-day plans, KPI dashboards, pricing levers—without selling a single share?
Your clients don’t need a deal. They need a strategy.
Your business doesn’t need more noise. It needs focus.
