Show Notes
In this episode of Talent Talks, host Rob Adams sits down with Chris Gagnon, Senior Partner at CEO Works, to explore how precision in talent deployment is becoming a pivotal lever in private equity transformation. Chris explains why so many value creation plans falter—not due to strategy or capital, but because leaders fail to match the right people to the right work. He introduces the concept of aligning work, role, and capability with rigor, moving beyond generic job profiles to truly quantify talent fit. From understanding why only one in four PE-backed CEOs reach exit, to harnessing data and AI for more predictive talent decisions, Chris offers a new framework for driving sustained impact through human insight.
