Private Equity Recruiting:The Widening War for Leadership

This latest research report from Hunt Scanlon Media examines the growing leadership crisis unfolding at private equity firms – and offers an array of talent solutions to win the widening war for leadership. According to Hunt Scanlon, the PE sector can expect to see an expanding bidding war for top talent over the next decade. Driving the trend: persistent global talent shortages across the C-suite in most industries and functions, including finance, healthcare and biotech, digital and technology.

Linking talent to value is this report’s overriding theme. Hunt Scanlon has surveyed hundreds of private equity leaders and their chief talent officers as well as leading executive recruiters specializing in the sector. Their expert commentary and advice is contained in this year’s report.

Among the featured PE leaders: General Atlantic, Bain Capital, Korn Ferry, TPG, McKinsey & Company, Russell Reynolds Associates, The Carlyle Group, Blackstone, Apollo Global Management, Egon Zehnder, Cerberus Operations & Advisory Company, YSC Consulting, Caldwell, Hellman & Friedman, JM Search, KKR, Thoma Bravo, New Mountain Capital, Providence Equity Partners, Technology Capital Ventures, Shore Capital Partners, Arbor Private Investments, Vistria Group, Akoya Capital, Serent Capital, Centerbridge, Warburg Pincus, Ankura Consulting Group, Clayton Dubilier & Rice, Berkshire Partners, Beringer Capital, Graham Partners, Nautic Partners, BCG, Signal Partners, FTV Capital, AEA Investors, Summit Partners, Morgan Stanley Capital Partners, Flagship Pioneering, Cove Hill Partners, Argosy Capital, Sycamore Partners, Triton Partners, Genstar Capital, Vest Financial, LME Acquisitions, Point72, TritonExec, Littlejohn, Grosvenor Capital and many others from across the PE spectrum.

According to the report, value creation for private equity firms is no longer beholden to financial engineering. Instead, returns are best maximized by building top flight management teams to drive revenue, find operating efficiencies and transform culture. While the PE sector is in the crosshairs of a widening war for leadership, reports Hunt Scanlon, that leadership is the new bottom line for PE operating executives seeking top talent for their portfolio businesses.
