How Steph is shaping the future with confidence
Firms pursuing inorganic growth strategies often face challenges when it comes to long-term value creation, in terms of exceeding or simply meeting pre-deal expectations, due to a lack of coordination among supporting deal teams and phases.
I enjoy connecting the dots to generate greater deal value across various dimensions, by bringing in the right people at the right time, to facilitate a more cohesive and successful integration. This work not only enhances individual deal outcomes but also contributes to a stronger, more resilient financial services industry.
