Send us a textBuilding a consulting firm from scratch requires more than expertise—it demands vision, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to culture. Edward Beals, founder of Loft9, demonstrates how these principles can transform a startup consultancy into an acquisition target in less than a decade.Starting with just two founders and modest investment, Loft9 achieved remarkable first-year results: 17 employees and $2.2 million in revenue. Beals attributes this success to their cultural foundation, what he calls the "trifecta of awesomeness"—hiring people who are smart, driven, and humble. This cultural emphasis wasn't just internal; it became their market differentiator when competing against established players."Clients are looking for a partner, someone who's going to roll up their sleeves and get in the trenches with them," Beals explains. "Not just someone to come in, tell them what to do, and walk away with a fancy deck left behind." This philosophy, combined with their co-delivery quality assurance model, helped them win business despite never being the lowest-priced option.When SIA Partners acquired Loft9 in 2019, the deal came together with surprising speed—just three months from letter of intent to closing. The acquisition offered strategic advantages for both companies: SIA gained a West Coast presence, while Loft9 accessed complementary capabilities in design thinking and data science without having to build them from scratch.For aspiring consultancy founders, Beals offers practical wisdom: invest in marketing earlier than you think necessary (particularly SEO), surround yourself with critical perspectives that challenge your ideas, and find deep personal motivation—for him, it was providing for his children—that will sustain you through the inevitable challenges of entrepreneurship.Want to transform your consultancy's value?

Send us a textWhat does it really take to build a successful global consulting firm from scratch without external investment? In this revealing conversation, Jeffrey Cronkshaw, founder and group managing director of Lancia Consult, shares the untold story behind growing his consultancy from a two-person operation to a thriving international business with offices in Singapore, the UK, and beyond.The journey began not with a meticulously crafted business plan, but with a practical solution to work-life balance challenges when Jeffrey's wife Isabella returned from maternity leave at Accenture. What started as a simple contracting vehicle quickly evolved into something much more ambitious when they spotted a significant gap in the Southeast Asian market – a vacuum between the Big Four firms and very small local consultancies that was begging to be filled.Jeffrey candidly discusses the realities of leaving partner-track positions at Accenture, the early cash flow challenges, and how they've built a distinctive culture with a remarkably young leadership team. His approach to growth has been refreshingly opportunistic rather than following conventional wisdom – deliberately avoiding London when entering the UK market, prioritizing process development before problems arise, and maintaining a long-term vision rather than focusing on a quick exit.Most compelling is Lancia's strategy for competing with industry giants. Rather than trying to beat them at their own game, they've created distinct advantages: giving consultants broader experiences and faster progression opportunities, maintaining deep connections between offices that would typically operate as separate entities in larger firms, and carefully diversifying their service offerings beyond pure consulting.Whether you're considering starting your own consultancy, looking to join a growing firm, or simply fascinated by entrepreneurial journeys, this episode offers valuable insights into building a sustainable professional services business in today's competitive landscape. How might Lancia's approach change your thinking about what's possible in the consulting world?Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

Grassy biomes, including grasslands, savannahs and crops, cover over 40% of all land on Earth. They play a significant role in carbon and silica cycles and have a large impact upon the climate. Grasslands (grass-dominated ecosystems) have shaped the evolution of numerous groups of organisms, most obviously grazing mammals, and can support a huge amount of biodiversity. Humans evolved in the savannas and through domestication of grasses formed agriculture, leading to a modern diet dominated by grasses such as oats, rice, wheat and corn. As anthropogenic climate change threatens large scale uncertainty, it's vital that we understand the controls that govern the success of this fundamentally important group. It is only by studying the evolutionary history of grasses that we might be able to predict how they will fare in future. Joining us in this episode to speak about the challenges of piecing together the evolutionary history of grasses from a relatively poor fossil record is Prof. Caroline Strömberg of the University of Washington.

In this episode, we sit down with two of today's most prominent defenders of science: Professor Michael Mann, world-renowned climate scientist, and Professor Peter Hotez, vaccine researcher and advocate for global health equity. Together, they've co-authored Science Under Siege, a powerful new book exposing the forces behind the global anti-science movement. We explore the surprising parallels between climate denial and vaccine misinformation, and how both Mann and Hotez have faced personal attacks simply for standing by the evidence. They break down the five key drivers of anti-science - plutocrats, professionals, propagandists, petrostates, and the press - and reveal how these forces shape public discourse and policy. This conversation is not just about diagnosing the problem, but about pathways forward: the urgent role of science communication, strategies to counter misinformation, and reasons to remain hopeful in the fight to reclaim trust in science. www.michaemann.net www.peterhotez.org www.scribepublications.com.au/books-authors/books/science-under-siege-9781761381669  

Send us a textAfter a summer hiatus “'Tis But A Scratch: Fact & Fiction About the Middle Ages” is back—well, not actually quite yet. I am busily working on the final two episodes of our series on the medieval papacy, “From Bishop of Rome to the Papal Monarchy.” I should have episode three on the Gregorian Reform and the Investiture Controversy out in a week or so.  But to tide you over, here is an episode on a related subject from a different podcast, “BEEF with Bridget Todd.” In it, Bridget Todd tells the story of the feud between Christendom's two most powerful rulers at the turn of the fourteenth century, Pope Boniface VIII and King Philip the Fair of France, a conflict that would determine the fate of the late medieval papacy. Making it even more relevant to this podcast, the script is by yours truly, Prof. Richard Abels. On September 7, 1303, William of Nogaret, chief legal advisor and fixer for King Philip IV of France, and Sciarra Colonna, a member of a powerful Italian family, led an armed band into the town of Anagni in the hills east of Rome. They had been told that Pope Boniface VIII had gone to the papal palace in Anagni, the town in which the pope had been born, to prepare a bull of excommunication against the French King.  Nogaret's mission was to seize the pope and compel him either to renounce the papacy on the spot or be brought back to France to stand trial before a general council.  Colonna, whose grievances were personal and familial, had his own agenda. He was prepared to kill the man who claimed to be God's vicar on earth if he proved stubborn. What later was to known as the Outrage of Anagni pitted the most powerful secular ruler in Christendom against the head of the Church to which he belonged.  Pope Boniface VIII was the spiritual leader of Christendom and claimed supreme God-given authority over the princes of the earth. As pope, he was also ruler of the papal states in Italy and the CEO of the largest and wealthiest, if most diffuse, corporation in Western Europe, a corporation that had extensive offices in France. It may not surprise you that the root of the conflict was a dispute over money. But it's best to begin with who these two men were and what the relationship between Church and State was in Western Europe in the late thirteenth century. BEEF with Bridget Todd. BEEF is an original scripted non-fiction storytelling podcast that focuses on famous historical rivalries, mostly between innovators in pop culture and business. Award-winning host Bridget Todd tells the stories of legends in their fields and how they tried to stomp out their competition only to find that their enemies become the driving force behind their success, ultimately changing the world as we know it. Past episodes have covered feuds such as the rivalry between basketball players Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain, 19th-century British explorers of the Nile Sir Richard Burton and Capt. John Hanning Speke, and Marc Antony and Octavian Caesar. They even have an episode on Beer vs Gin: England's Favorite Beverages.This episode also includes some truly insightful observations by Dr. Cecilia Gaposchkin of Dartmouth College. And the podcast's acclaimed host, Bridget Todd, is excellent as usual. I hope you enjoy it. And if you do, you might want to check out other episodes of “BEEF with Bridget Todd.” It isn't a medieval podcast, but if you enjoy history and story-telling, I think you will like it.  You can listen to it wherever you get your podcasts. Listen on Podurama https://podurama.com Intro and exit music are by Alexander NakaradaIf you have questions, feel free to contact me at richard.abels54@gmail.com

“When we have the next crisis, the word ‘private' is going to be in every headline,” says Cornell Professor Dave Collum. In this interview with Daniela Cambone, Collum warns that the biggest risks in the next financial crisis won't come from the public markets—stocks, Treasuries, and the like—but from the shadowy private markets: private credit, private equity, and private debt, where leverage and valuations are opaque. He also explains why today's debt-driven economy is unsustainable and why he believes inflation and policy missteps are setting the stage for a severe reset. “At some point you either default outright or you inflate it away, but either path is a reset.” Collum also reflects on his recent appearance on the Tucker Carlson Show, where he exposed the risks of a “digital deep state” and the growing disconnect between official narratives and economic reality. “When information itself is weaponized, markets become even more dangerous,” he concludes. ✅ FREE RESOURCESDownload The Private Wealth Playbook — a data-backed guide to strategically acquiring gold and silver for maximum protection, privacy, and performance.

"...and as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do." In this episode, Professor Johnson (Baylor U.) explores the origins of American theories of diplomacy and the importance of race and freedom in early American history. These concepts are seen most clearly in early relations between the USA and France, particularly the French colony of Saint-Domingue (modern day Haiti). This episode covers the period between the First Treaty of Paris (1763) and the Second Treaty of Paris (1783). Topics include: -the origins of American diplomacy -the conditions in the First Treaty of Paris that enflamed colonial tensions in North America, the Caribbean, and even Africa -the evolving racial politics amongst whites, free people of color, and slaves in Saint-Domingue, which had 128 categories of racial distinction -the similarities and differences between racial politics and colonial politics in British North America and French Saint-Domingue -the fascinating story of Crispus Attucks, a Massachusetts slave who freed himself and then became the first martyr in the Boston Massacre -strategies of black liberation in both French and British colonies -black authors who wrote about black emancipation, including Phillis Wheatley and Lemuel Haynes -John Adams' founding foreign policy theory of the new United States, namely the rejection of Europe's concept of the balance of power and military alliances -the first treaty between France and the US in 1778 -the story of the Chasseurs-Volontaires de Saint-Domingue, who fought with American rebels at the Siege of Savannah and who, after the American Revolution, returned to Saint-Domingue to lead the Haitian Revolution against the French Empire -the importance of Article 1 of the second Treaty of Paris (1783), which states: "His Brittanic Majesty acknowledges the said United States...to be free sovereign and Independent States; that he treats with them as such, and for himself his Heirs & Successors, relinquishes all claims to the Government, Propriety, and Territorial Rights of the same and every Part thereof." You can find a link to Prof. Johnson's new book, Entangled Alliances (Cornell UP) here: [Entangled Alliances: Racialized Freedom and Atlantic Diplomacy during the American Revolution](https://www.cornellpress.cornell.edu/book/9781501783715/entangled-alliances/#bookTabs=1) The cover image features a reproduction of Paul Revere's famous lithograph of Crispus Attucks being killed during the Boston Massacre.

Many of us use artificial intelligence for help with research, work, or creative projects. But some people are getting a LOT more personal with their AI chatbots. We're hearing stories of people treating their chatbot like a friend, or something more than a friend — with some people saying they've even fallen in love with their chatbot. And then there are stories of things taking a scary turn, with people's mental health spiraling out of control after talking to these bots. So, what should we make of AI companions? Is it risky to spend a lot of time talking to an AI bot? We ask AI researcher Dr. Julian de Freitas and psychiatrist Dr. Keith Sakata.  This episode does mention mental health issues and suicide. Here are some crisis hotlines:  United States: US National Suicide Prevention Lifeline Dial 988 (Online chat available); US Crisis Text Line Text “HOME” to 741741 Australia: Lifeline 13 11 14 (Online chat available) Canada: Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention (See link for phone numbers listed by province) United Kingdom: Samaritans 116 123 (UK and ROI) Full list of international hotlines here  Find our transcript here: https://bit.ly/ScienceVsAiCompanions  Chapters: In this episode, we cover: (00:00) What's it like to fall in love with a chatbot?

Send us a textAre your consultancy's processes holding back your growth potential? In this revealing episode of the Consulting Growth Podcast, we dive deep into how Professional Service Automation (PSA) software can transform small and medium-sized consultancies.Guest Behram Khan, co-founder of Avaza PSA software, shares how the right systems can help consultancies escape the "spreadsheet trap" that drains productivity and profits. Born from his own frustrations as a project manager, Khan explains how fragmented processes using separate tools for tasks, communication, time tracking, and invoicing create costly inefficiencies that compound as businesses grow.The benefits of implementing a PSA system are substantial and measurable. Most consultancies see a 5-10% improvement in billable resource utilization – equivalent to gaining an extra team member without additional salary costs. Status meetings become more focused, email threads more manageable, and project profitability more visible. Perhaps most critically for growing firms, PSA systems significantly improve cash flow through streamlined invoicing and payment processes.Khan makes a compelling case for early PSA adoption: "Adopting a PSA tool should be part of the initial business setup." Starting with basic functionality and expanding as you grow establishes solid processes before bad habits form. The ideal solution balances ease of use with sufficient flexibility to adapt to your specific workflows.Beyond technology, Khan offers valuable advice for consultancy growth: invest time researching how to reach prospective clients, maintain consistent marketing messaging with clear calls to action, keep existing customers happy through clear communication, and automate repetitive activities wherever possible. Most importantly, ensure your business can function smoothly even without you present – a key indicator of a truly valuable consultancy.Ready to transform your consultancy operations?

Got a story idea for Bloodworks 101? Send us a text message The "We Give Blood Drive" is the brainchild of Abbott Laboratories, an American multinational medical devices and health care company and the Big Ten conference to promote blood donation by students, alumni, and fans of Big Ten schools. The campaign is now underway with Big Ten schools vying for a $1 million grant to advance student or community health by registering the greatest number of donors among Big Ten institutions across the country during the current Big Ten football season. Recently, Bloodworks 101 producer John Yeager spoke with Professor Alexes Harris from the University of Washington, a Big Ten school, about why the campaign is so important to her. 

Frisches Gemüse, Rohmilch, unverarbeitete Lebensmittel und dazu viel Sport. Klingt erstmal nach einer grünen Lebensphilosophie. Allerdings gibt es im Netz immer mehr Influencer, die gesunden Lifestyle, natürliches Essen und eine vermeintlich „alternative” Medizin mit rechtem Gedankengut und Verschwörungsideologien verknüpfen. Im Umfeld von Esoterik, Wunderheilung und Reichsbürgerszene entsteht eine Parallelwelt, die jenseits gesellschaftlicher Normen funktioniert. Da sie sich nur wenig gewaltbereit zeigt, wird häufig unterschätzt, welche Gefahren von ihr ausgehen. Wann führt der Weg von harmlosen Lifestyletrends in die rechte Verschwörungsecke, zu Reichsbürgern und Co. und was hat das mit der deutschen Nazi-Vergangenheit zu tun? Darüber wollen wir heute reden, und zwar mit Julian Vogel, dem Regisseur der Doku “Soldaten des Lichts”, mit dem Religionswissenschaftler Prof. Julian Strube von der Uni Göttingen, mit Prof. Gunther Hirschfelder, Kulturwissenschaftler an der Uni Regensburg und mit Oliver Decker, Professor für Rechtsextremismus- und Demokratieforschung an der Uni Leipzig. Podcast-Tipp: Seelenfänger In der fünften Staffel von Seelenfänger geht es um die Germanische Neue Medizin, die nicht weniger als die Revolution der Medizin sein soll. Die Idee ist: Jede Krankheit wird ausgelöst durch einen seelischen Konflikt. Um wieder gesund zu werden, muss man nichts tun, außer diesen Konflikt zu lösen und abzuwarten. Heißt also auch: Man braucht keine Ärzt:innen mehr, keine Chemotherapien oder Schmerzmittel. Hamer nennt seine Methode “die größte Entdeckung der Menschheitsgeschichte”. Die Recherche des Seelenfänger-Teams zeigt ein anderes Bild. Die Germanische Neue Medizin ist eine gefährliche Pseudomedizin, an der viele Menschen gestorben sind. Außerdem ist sie durchtränkt von Antisemitismus. https://1.ard.de/seelenfaenger-diagnose-tod

Steeds meer Nederlanders zoeken manieren om even uit het sociaal contract te stappen. De één gaat hiken of verdrinkt in consumentengedrag, een ander besluit zich volledig af te sluiten van nieuws en politiek. Soms krijgt dat extremere vormen, zoals bij de zogenoemde “soevereinen” die zich volledig willen onttrekken aan de staat. Prof. dr. Menno Hurenkamp, politicoloog en publicist, verbonden aan de Universiteit Utrecht en professor aan de University of Humanistic Studies vertelt erover in de Jortcast. Volgens Hurenkamp zijn soevereinen een symptoom van iets groters. Terwijl de politiek zich vastdraait in het herstellen van vertrouwen, groeit juist de behoefte om zelf de voorwaarden van burgerschap te bepalen. 

Donald Trump recently reverted the name of the Dept. of Defense to Dept. of War. He, and his cronies, claim that the Dept of Defense is too woke and needs to return to a "warrior culture." Never one to be confused with a genius, Trump misses the history of why the Department of Defense came into being in 1947 and how it was a blueprint for America being a military, economic and political super power, , i.e. an "American Empire." In our latest, we talk about the history of the National Security State, recent adventures in the waters off of Venezuela, domestic military operations in Chicago, and the White House meme-ifying Trump as Lt. Col. Bill Kilgore (played by Robert Duvall) in Apocalypse Now as he saber rattles a federal invasion in Chicago. -------------------------------------------Music- "G&R Blues" by Moody

This week's episode of the FTC Podcast begins an occasional feature where we talk to an expert on different books of the Bible. In this first Bible book episode, Jared Wilson talks with Dr. Patrick Schreiner, Assoc. Prof. of New Testament and Biblical Theology at Midwestern Seminary, about the book of Acts, Luke's chronicle of the early church after Christ's resurrection. What are the major themes? What do we make of some tricky texts? And what is the importance of this book for the average local church?

Send us a textRobert Garner's journey from KPMG partner to successful consultancy entrepreneur offers a masterclass in professional services growth and value creation. Drawing on his experience founding Avail Consulting (which he successfully sold) and later serving as Group CEO of Tribal Group, Garner shares the strategic frameworks that transformed his businesses from startups to multimillion-pound enterprises.At the heart of Robert Garner's approach is a disciplined focus on what he calls the "four-by-four matrix" – aligning four specific service offerings with four target markets to create sixteen strategic focal points. This clarity of purpose allowed his team to methodically track progress and avoid the common trap of unfocused expansion. "Too many smaller organisations spend too much time working IN and not enough time working ON," Robert Garner explains, revealing how he and his co-founder limited themselves to 40% utilization to preserve crucial time for business development.For consultancy owners preparing for eventual sale, Robert Garner offers invaluable insights into what buyers truly value. He emphasizes the importance of developing annuity revenue streams where possible, building robust operational systems well before they're critically needed, and cultivating leadership teams that extend beyond the founder. His operational due diligence work with Garwood Solutions has given him unique visibility into the common pitfalls that diminish consultancy valuations.Perhaps most reassuringly, Robert Garner challenges the widespread fear that growth inevitably dilutes company culture. His experience demonstrates that with intentional leadership, strong values can be maintained through significant scaling. The real threat to culture isn't size but rather leadership that fails to create appropriate frameworks – or as Garner puts it, "It's okay to take risks; it's not okay to take uncontrolled risks."Whether you're growing a boutique consultancy or preparing for eventual acquisition, Garner's systematic approach to professional services growth provides a blueprint for building firms that deliver exceptional client value while commanding premium valuations in the market. His insights reveal why some consultancies plateau while others achieve remarkable exits.Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

Send us a textWhat happens when business partners who once shared a vision find themselves at odds over an exit strategy? The consequences can be financially devastating and emotionally draining—yet most consultancy owners postpone these crucial conversations until it's too late.Bill Bierce, managing attorney and co-founder of Beers Kenerson Attorneys, brings decades of experience resolving business partnership disputes to this eye-opening conversation about preparing for successful exits. Having witnessed countless "corporate divorces," Bill shares practical wisdom on how consultancy owners can protect themselves and their equity value through proper planning.At the heart of Bill's approach is a simple yet profound concept: start with the end in mind. From establishing veto rights and force majeure provisions to creating governance structures that survive personality conflicts, he outlines the essential legal frameworks that prevent catastrophic disputes. These aren't just legal technicalities—they're the foundation of healthy business relationships that preserve value for everyone involved.The discussion delves into the psychology of partnership, comparing business relationships to marriages that require shared values and clear expectations. Bill reveals how minority shareholders can protect themselves, how to maximize valuation during sale preparation, and why knowledge management systems dramatically increase a firm's attractiveness to buyers. His insights on Delaware corporate law, earnout structures, and due diligence processes provide a masterclass in exit planning.Whether you're just starting a consultancy or have been operating for years, this conversation offers invaluable guidance on structuring your business for maximum equity value. Take the first step toward a smarter exit strategy by learning from someone who's seen what happens when partners fail to plan—and how dramatically different the outcomes can be when they do.Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

In this Prof Responds finale on the Hogwarts houses, we wrestle with the lion's legacy: is Gryffindor bravery actually just recklessness in disguise? From Harry's headlong heroics to Neville's considered courage, we explore how Gryffindors embody bravery differently—and why the house so often gets rewarded for dangerous choices. We also dig into Hogwarts itself: the adults who encourage risk, the point system that prizes peril, and Dumbledore's constant appeals to the “greater good.” Finally, Peter Pettigrew becomes our cautionary tale of sorting too soon and valuing potential over reality. Together, these threads show Gryffindor courage as both luminous and perilous, a gamble for the greater good that doesn't always pay off.

Averill Earls is an associate professor in history at St. Olaf's College and her research focuses on sexuality and modern Ireland. Her writing has appeared in the Journal of the History of Sexuality, Historical Reflections (in the top-visited issue of the journal to date), Perspectives Magazine, Nursing Clio, and Notches Blog. In 2021 she was awarded the Judith R. Walkowitz Article Prize for her 2020 article, "Solicitor Brown and His Boy." Prof. Earls is also one of the four feminist historians and award-winning podcasters who founded Dig: A History Podcast in 2017. Love in the Lav: A Social Biography of Same-Sex Desire in Ireland, 1922-1972 (Temple UP, 2025) tells the unexpected, sometimes heartbreaking, stories of Dublin's men who desired men and the Gardaí who policed them. The book uncovers Ireland's queer lives of the past. Averill Earls investigates how same-sex-desiring men lived and loved in a country where their sexuality was illegal and seen as unnatural. Across seven social biographical chapters, each highlighting individuals at the nexus of these histories, Earls constructs a narrative of experiences through the larger contexts in which they are embedded. She uses courtroom testimonies, police records, and family history archives as well as “educated speculation” to show how structures governing male same-sex desire in Ireland played out on the bodies of the men who desired men, the teen boys who sold sex to men, and the way the Catholic-nationalist ethos shaped the Gardaí who policed them. Love in the Lav examines the experiences of people such as cabbie James Hand, who was put on trial for gross indecency, to provide a window into the queer working-class subculture of 1930s Dublin. Earls also focuses on issues of consent, especially with teens, and the unregulated queer Irish world of public figures, including Micheál Mac Liammóir, Hilton Edwards, Ronald Brown, and John Broderick. By examining twentieth-century Ireland through the lived experiences of ordinary same-sex-desiring Irish men who were relegated to obscurity by Irish society, Earls reveals the contradictions, possibilities, and magnitude of postcolonial Irish Catholic nationalism.

My guest today is Alena Vránová, entrepreneur, author, and builder of freedom tech who has spent over a decade pioneering tools that defend both digital and physical sovereignty. She co-founded SatoshiLabs (Trezor's mother company), which launched  the world's first commercially available hardware wallet, joined the Casa Node team to make running Bitcoin and Lightning easy, and co-authored The Little Bitcoin Book, a global bestseller introducing why Bitcoin matters for freedom and finance. Today, she is building GLOK, a project dedicated to protecting Bitcoiners against kidnapping, extortion, and physical threats. In this episode, Alena shares her journey from legacy finance into Bitcoin, recounting how she helped establish an entirely new market for hardware wallets. We discuss the ongoing attempts to co-opt Bitcoin through regulation and confiscation, the dangers of KYC and data leaks, and why physical security is the next frontier for Bitcoiners worldwide. Alena also reflects on the role of women in Bitcoin, the growth of a truly global community, and why she believes building tools for self-defense—digital and physical—is essential for human freedom► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

Send us a textWhat makes a consultancy truly valuable to potential buyers? It's far more than just impressive EBIT DA figures and client lists.David Blois, a certified accountant with 25 years of M&A experience in the professional services sector, reveals the three critical boxes every successful acquisition must tick: chemistry between the parties, cultural alignment in working practices, and an outstanding combined business proposition. His insights challenge the conventional wisdom that focuses solely on financials."Buyers are fairly simple creatures," Bloys explains, highlighting their preference for straightforward acquisitions that align with strategic objectives without requiring complex restructuring. This reinforces why niche-focused consultancies typically attract more interest and higher valuations than generalist firms.For consultancy owners planning an exit, timing is everything. Engaging with M&A specialists 2-3 years before your intended sale allows you to systematically address value-limiting factors. Common weaknesses include absence of second-tier management, inadequate margins, poor systems, and over-reliance on referral business. By understanding what creates premium factors versus discount factors in your valuation, you can strategically enhance your firm's worth.Perhaps most valuable is Bloys' practical advice on earnouts - keep them to 2-3 years maximum and ensure targets are realistically achievable. The success of these arrangements hinges on that initial chemistry and cultural fit established at the deal's outset.Whether you're running a £5 million or £50 million consultancy, these principles apply. The gap in valuation multiples between smaller and larger firms isn't as dramatic as many believe, particularly when smaller firms find buyers who recognize strong synergistic benefits.Want to maximize your consultancy's value? Focus on building a distinctive, specialized business with robust fundamentals rather than prematurely orienting your strategy around potential buyers. When sale time arrives, work with specialists who can connect you with multiple potential acquirers - finding not just the highest price, but the right match for long-term success.Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

This week, we have Prof. John Beckett Wallingford to discuss the current landscape of federal science funding, and the importance of science in American industry and society. We set the scene with a reading of The Polio Vaccine, Chatham, Virginia, 1964, by Claudia Emerson. John Beckett Wallingford is a developmental biologist with three decades of experience.  He is the Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Doherty Jr. Regents Chair in Molecular Biology and a Professor in the Dept. of Molecular Biosciences at the University of Texas at Austin.  Since 2003, his laboratory has sought to understand how form and function arise in embryos using advanced microscopy, systems biology, and biomechanics. Wallingford's research explores animal models and collaborates with human geneticists to understand human birth defects. He is writing a forthcoming book about embryos:  In the Beginning.
