Dealmaking has been going like gangbusters for private equity
firms throughout 2014 and 2015. However, many experts believe that PE
firms will have a hard time producing outsized returns from the deals
they completed in today’s market, where valuations are very high and
leverage is abundant. To help portfolio companies achieve growth in all
situations, but especially in today’s environment, Advent International
and Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe have both developed extensive
operating partner programs over many years.
What follows is an excerpt of a conversation with Conor Boden,

operations professionals can add value and why they are important to
investment strategies.
