We believe that the combination of an investor, entrepreneur, and manager leads to the best results for all parties. As an investor, we want to get a good return and we must accurately anticipate both the threats and possibilities in the market and the business. As an entrepreneur, we have to take risks, seize opportunities, rely on our intuition, and sometimes take firm action to achieve our goals. As a manager, we get people moving, provide structure, develop lasting improvements, and we help keep or make employees proud of their company.
