PRIVATE EQUITY COACHING TO ELEVATE PORTFOLIO LEADERS

 

CO2 Coaches work with Private Equity Portfolio companies that face challenges with growth, plateauing, or navigating a downturn. We work with leadership teams to build capacity through assessments, coaching, team development, and strategic planning. Our open questions and proven mental models elevate the mindset of individuals and teams. The result is superior business performance and better relationships with the CEOs and PE firm partners. With over 300 businesses and thousands of leaders transformed under our guidance, we bring expertise and real-world wisdom to the table.

We Put Your Bottom Line First

With CEO turnover post-acquisition at an all time high, CO2 Coaching bridges the gap between Private Equity Firms and Portfolio Companies. We help CEOs work effectively with investors, increasing productivity and reducing turnover – saving you time, money, and a massive headache. Executive Coaching enables Portfolio company leaders to solve big problems, communicate clearly and work effectively with their teams and their board, ultimately creating value for the PortCo and your bottom line.

CO2  founder and Managing Partner, Gary Cohen, has been a leader in executive coaching for more than 20 years and has coached more than 100 CEOs and executives. Schedule an appointment with a coach here.

Our collaboration with CO2 was deep, with them acting not just as coaches and consultants, but as partners. Their expertise enabled us to achieve over ten successful integrations and significantly improve our margins. Their strategic advice was vital, helping us to not only survive but to excel.”
