Profile of a Turnaround Professional
Discretion. Determination. Sharp negotiating skills. Sensitive interpersonal skills. Leadership talent. Team approach. Intelligence. Integrity.
The qualities needed to be an effective turnaround professional aren't acquired in the classroom. The hot seat is where they are developed and honed.
Our four founders - Neal Anderson, Ed Bauman, Peter Tourtellot and Gary Vos - earned their stripes the hard way. As senior executives of a public textile company, they personally risked all they owned to lead its thousands of employees in taking the company private to avoid a hostile takeover. They earned what amounted to a Ph.D. in corporate revitalization - a profession that had yet to be born. The firm of Anderson Bauman Tourtellot Vos & Company, established in 1989, has been a leader in developing professional standards for this emerging field of specialization.
As Anderson Bauman Tourtellot Vos has tripled in size, the practical knowledge and strong sense of accountability needed to turn a company around continue to characterize the firm. All our professionals have executive level experience.
With our intimate knowledge of all that is at risk in a restructuring and renewal, we can never be armchair analysts and advisers. Our client companies benefit from our deep understanding of how every stage of revitalization looks and feels, and of the impact on all stakeholders.
