Event Description
"One of the highest impact activities that a private equity firm can undertake with a privately held middle market company is to upgrade its management team when necessary. The way in which an executive search is conducted can be critical to the success or failure of the recruiting effort.

Jim Gilreath has a long track record of successful searches for operating executives for private equity-backed businesses - including Metapoint Partners, Weston Presidio, Stonebridge Partners, The Riverside Company, Hanover Partners, Capital Resource Partners, Watermill Group, New England Capital Partners, Gemini Investors, Hastings Equity Partners & Westview Capital Partners - and his approach is differentiated by its extremely thorough diligence on the executives being considered and total focus on executives that will invest cash equity in the transactions. Jim will profile his approach and outline some of the key factors that can determine success or failure in an executive search."
