From the building.
Field notes on integration and the operating partner seat. New pieces land here as they are written; more from Scott is on the Dr. Scott Kimball YouTube channel.
The ten predictors of people-side integration success
Ranked, with the UNITE line that delivers each one. If you only watch five, watch these: leadership clarity, decision rights, critical-talent retention, communication credibility, target-culture alignment.
You are not paying for one day a week. You are paying to make the other six days run better.
The value of an Operating Partner is not another set of recommendations. It is an experienced operator inside the company who creates the structure, accountability and operating rhythm that the leadership team can carry forward without him.

Twenty minutes on the deal, the building and whether Scott is the right person for it. No deck, no pitch.
