People before Profits

07.26.20 08:03 AM By Admin


The playbook most private equity investors apply from Day 1 is straightforward: Reduce costs, Reinvest in new products, Acquire more customers and businesses.  It is a profitable playbook...for short periods of time.


Norton Henry's time horizon is much longer than the typical private equity time horizon.  Our time horizon is indefinite.  Therefore, our playbook is also different.


For us, people are the source of value.  Our playbook is: Attract with Purpose, Develop Capabilities, Expand Responsibility.  This does not minimize the importance of profit growth and returns (see Financial Model).  But we put People before Profits.  People are #1 in the Norton Henry System.
