Overview
In the wake of the “New Normal”, defined by PIMCO as a period of slower growth, static profit margins, increased government intervention and consumer retrenchment, there have been few things to fire the imagination more than a viable growth story. Key stakeholders, including management, lenders, investors (private equity and venture capital), suppliers, etc. have all pursued with increasing fervor the elusive goal of robust growth. But the goal is not elusive for all companies; in fact, some companies are finding themselves poised for growth. And for those fortune companies, there can be no greater disappointment than a failure to execute in the face of such opportunity.
