We hope you will join these gentlemen, along with the rest of our panel on May 9th at the Indian Harbor Yacht Club in Greenwich, CT for what is sure to be a spectacular breakfast program as they address:
· · · · · ·	What is driving the trend of "hotshot managers" fleeing public companies for the private equity world? What do private equity investment firms look for in CEOs for their portfolio companies? When do private equity groups "look outside" for a CEO, versus keeping an existing CEO of an acquired company? Key Man or Executive Sponsorship Programs: Some private equity groups partner with a "Key Man" first, and then work with that Key Man to acquire a company, with the Key Man assuming the CEO role of the acquired company -- how does this process work? How do you find CEO opportunities at private equity-backed companies? How are CEOs typically compensated at private equity-backed businesses?
