The Game of Value Creation takes you inside the world of active investors,
who acquire companies that offer substantial opportunities for value
creation and turn them into success stories using a proven, calculated, and
tactical approach, so that you too can benefit from the strategies that work
for the big fish in your own business.
Karl Yaacoub, a former investment banker and private equity investor,
reveals how to view a business as a series of interconnected parts while
applying the same principles as world-leading institutions to help your
organization achieve success.
EXCERPT
Dreams are never pursued with the expectation of mediocre results.
It’s not to fail and learn a lesson that we get into business and
partnerships. It’s because we want to get closer to our dreams. When
it comes to our endeavors, we are not just in it for the experience; we
also want to succeed and reap the rewards. For all that we have built
and contributed, we hope to be recognized and appreciated.
This book will help you realize that there is more to your business
journey, even if you’re well on your way to being totally hands-off.
Your legacy extends far beyond what you have done. In addition, you
will have a framework that you can use to manifest “what could have
been”.
As a result, you will likely start asking better questions and your discussions
will become more engaging. As soon as you begin implementing
the low-hanging fruit presented here, you will end up in a better position than when you began, and you will see results as early
as the first few months.
There will be an upbeat tone when talking about your business, what
it stands for, and what it represents. Business progress will become
clearer not only to you, but to those you matter to in your sphere, the
stakeholders, and the decision-makers.
Instead of obsessing over maintaining control and micromanagement,
you are going to obsess over creating value, improving your customers’
buying journey, innovating, unlocking more cash to fund growth
projects, and developing other leaders.
You will be able to better understand how the market changes, how
your organization should adapt, and how your target customers
think. Your trust in growth will grow, and you will ensure those in
your sphere of influence are also on the same journey, because they
have chosen to be.
