Partnership Capital with PCG:
Why, What, and How
Why?
Entrepreneurs and capitalists need one another in order to unlock the extraordinary value potential in their relationship. Too often, this relationship is rife with mistrust.
We invest in relationships first. This foundation allows us to take a different approach that serves owners to foster holistic value creation.
What?
If you are an enterprise owner, your hard work built an enterprise, one brick at a time. You know and have lived 1+1=2. This is the math of hard-working owners who know how to create value with capital.
Partnership capital emerges in an enterprise when distinct strengths are interdependently committed in trusted relationship toward a unified goal through a clear and well-executed strategy. This releases a new synergy that sparks possibilities and transforms businesses.
We believe we have discovered the exponential math of partnership capital. Partnership capital transforms additive value into exponential value: 1+1=5. Here’s how we do it.
How?
Our Process
Partnership capital is crafted through a highly relational process. True partnership builds as each person gives what the other needs to build trust and unity at each step.
Fitting – we get a feel for each other’s values and goals.
Designing – we try to discover a shared vision for exponential value creation.
Forming – we identify, expectations, interdependencies, and commitments.
Testing – we review all assumptions and see if a firm structure emerges. This may take iterations and seasons of waiting.
When formal partnership does not result, we make one other more valuable. If the process yields partnership, we follow a similar cycle that drives performance – think, execute, account.
What does a partnership with PCG look like?
We seek trustworthy owners who want partnership and who have vision for high-potential enterprise growth. Our leanness and customizability allows us to partner with owners from about $1 million to $10+ million in annual revenues in a variety of industries and sectors.
