Accelerating Gains in Value through Pre-Deal Talent Strategies
Pre-deal talent strategies are gaining momentum as private equity and venture capital firms recognize the power of securing top leadership before transactions close, according to Hunt Scanlon. By proactively identifying and aligning key executives with strategic objectives, firms can accelerate value creation, mitigate risks, and ensure seamless post-deal integration.
We empower our private equity and venture capital clients to gain a competitive edge by sourcing transformative leaders early in the deal process.

In today’s fast-paced private equity, venture capital, and corporate landscape, CEOs must align talent with their company’s value agenda to drive exponential growth, as outlined in Sandy Ogg’s Talent to Value. By collaborating with CFOs and CHROs to identify and fill critical, value-creating roles, CEOs can enhance performance, mitigate risks, and unlock transformative opportunities.
Our proven framework empowers CEOs to connect talent to value by placing exceptional leaders in high-impact roles. Through the CEO-CFO-CHRO "Golden Triangle" and tools like the Talent-to-Value Map, we help portfolio companies minimize risks, optimize performance, and achieve superior returns in a competitive market.
Maximize Gains at Exit and Beyond by
Matching Talent
with Business Strategy
Private equity firms and venture capital firms drive maximum value by partnering with talent experts who assess each portfolio company’s unique needs, aligning leadership capabilities with specific business strategies. A turnaround demands distinct skills—such as rapid decision-making and operational restructuring—while a growth strategy requires visionary leaders who can scale operations and innovate, making precise talent matching at the C-suite, VP, and emerging leader levels critical for success.
We collaborate with our private equity and venture capital partners to deliver tailored leadership solutions, identifying and placing executives whose skills precisely align with each portfolio company’s strategic objectives. Our rigorous assessment process ensures that whether the goal is turnaround or growth, the right leaders are in place to accelerate value creation and achieve sustainable results across all portfolio companies.
