I always like to learn something new and recent financial crisis was an excellent “teacher”. In the small and mid-cap market, there was a situation when cash was available but it was hard for investors to find good projects to invest in.
I realized that it was time to promote Management Buy-In (MBI) concept to the Latvian and Baltic markets. These markets still have many fragmented industries consisting of companies that focus their attention on survival, not on development and growth. One of the major obstacles for industry consolidations so far is the ex-and current businesses who are reluctant to change their private ambitions and spending habits. At the same time, there are excellent managers, yet not many, who have been long enough in the business and are talented enough to achieve the next level in their professional development – to become entrepreneurs.
These are managers:
- WHO THINK STRATEGIC
- WHO POSSESS LEADERSHIP
- WHO COME UP WITH AND ARE OPEN FOR INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS
- WHO ARE EXPERTS IN THEIR INDUSTRY
I believe such people are a key to industry consolidation process.
