Which do you bet on in a race: the jockey or the horse?  It’s both of course, but once out of the gate, even a great horse won’t succeed without a seasoned rider.

The same holds true for a portfolio company and its management.   Private equity investors typically bet first and foremost on the jockey -- under the theory that the better the jockey, the better the return.

Join us for a discussion focused on how PE firms are focusing on "talent" today, and more broadly than ever before.   Issues like Candidate Assessment, Culture Fit, Performance Management, and Strategic Talent Acquisition are in the forefront of investors' minds today.

Our panel of experts will offer a diverse range of perspectives on the critical human capital issues facing PE firms and their portfolio companies today.
