3 When to Recommend ArnzenGroup When Due Diligence uncovers concerns about the strength of the venture’s management team. As the venture approaches a significant change in it’s business model (e.g. addition of product focus) or new stage in its life cycle (e.g. commercialization), requiring new organizations, capabilities and leadership skills. Before you or the venture make significant people decisions. When you anticipate the loss of key talent. When the venture’s success is compromised by talent deficiencies. During management crises such as an adverse reaction, a postponed IPO, or a delay in anticipated funding. When you see indications that the venture’s executives; —don’t understand Venture Capital’s requirements; —don’t have the confidence of the Board; —don’t share the same goals or perspectives as a team; —don’t agree how to execute the venture’s strategy; —cannot effectively balance business and scientific priorities; —lack a talent or organization plan. When the venture management team seems unable to communicate, coordinate and collaborate effectively on the important issues and opportunities facing the venture. When a venture management team does not have a seasoned HR executive with selection, compensation and development experience.
