Our value proposition:

Valuable perspective – We supplement the strategic thinking of senior executive teams. For example …

• A respected system of specialty hospitals established internal strategy teams that utilize the insights of the Leavitt Partners’ team.
• We advise senior executives of a university with an innovative and growing healthcare college.

Relationships – We facilitate connections that open new markets or resolve problems. For example …

• A cutting edge data analytics company uses our strategic advice to transfer their valuable product offerings into public sector markets.
• A major medical device company utilizes Leavitt Partners to develop evidence for payers that its products lower long-term costs while improving clinical outcomes.

Problem Solving – We become a deployable asset for the senior executive team in executing their priorities. For example …

• The CEO of a major device company uses us to work with their team and to improve the value proposition for payers and expand demand for their product.
• The CEO of a medical information enterprise uses our team to introduce them to the main players in an emerging data aggregation effort.

Private equity – We source, evaluate and improve private equity opportunities. For example …

• A private equity firm asked a Leavitt Partners principal to serve as a director of a portfolio company.
• Leavitt Partners proposed an investment thesis to a private equity firm, assembled a group of industry experts to frame it and has begun exploring prospective acquisition targets.

Our approach:

• We work collaboratively – Each client has access to the entire Leavitt Partners organization.

• We use our experience to bring perspective – Our value-add stems from the combination of unique experiences, knowledge and relationships that allow us to add perspective others do not have.

• We gather, assimilate and translate information – We stay current by gathering and assimilating data and inside information critical to our clients’ success and then we translate it to strategic relevance.
