Are people at other firms doing value creation bits along side FDD work? Or so any work identifying value creation opportunities? It just amazes me sometimes that we’re not involved in any value creation work alongside DD, when we are in the detail of the business and having regular conversations with C executives

I create value every day by giving my clients valuable knowledge

AGREE

No you don’t independence problems. Your firm needs to split.

No, if bottom line increases, it'll go into partners' pockets. They will try to maintain "competitive salaries" (5-10% below market average)

Value creation like giving advice on where they could build synergies with their current business? Sounds like strategy or operational due diligence

If my baby got comedy lessons from Jerry Seinfeld, I still wouldn’t expect her to become funny. Same idea as to why giving valuable strategic information to an FDD monkey is useless, they won’t know what to do with it.

Yeah and if my granda had wheels, she would have been a bike…
