Deal Closed. Human Capital Aligned?

Unlock faster M&A EBITDA growth with our guaranteed team performance system.

How solid is your value creation plan for your most impactful resource - the people acquired?

We’ve got you covered.

Post deal, rapid people integration and alignment throughout the enterprise is often sadly neglected—we suspect this oversight is a major reason for fund underperformance, and a lot of unnecessary struggle.

A system to grow people and teams in a quantifiable way represents an incredible opportunity for PE firms to grow portco EBITDA faster.

CopperTeams Team Training and Software System reliably transforms average & dysfunctional teams into exceptional teams.

And if we don’t, you don’t pay.

Finally, how would you like to know which teams in your portcos are at risk of quitting, underperforming or failing BEFORE it happens? We built TeamScape™ to give you this power and insight…in just 90 seconds.

To deliver, Private Equity needs a new talent strategy.

    People drive EBITDA growth.

    We invite you to support their success with the CopperTeams system.

  • Step 1 - engage us early in due diligence so we can quantify your target’s people risks and opportunities

    Step 2 - the best value creation plans include robust human capital integration plans that go into effect on Day 1. People are going to do the work. The question is how effectively?

    Use the people insights we’ve provided you in due diligence to craft your human capital integration plan. If you’d like support or to learn best practices for this, give us a call.

    Step 3 - deploy TeamScape into the target so that you and management have full visibility into the effectiveness of all portco teams, updated monthly.

    Management can now triage teams needing support BEFORE they quit, underperform, or fail.

    Step 4 - deploy CopperTeams team training and software system to the target’s senior management at minimum and, most impactfully, to every team in the target for the first year post acquisition.
