What is a Chief Value Officer?
“As CEO, you are the CVO! What can you do to accelerate value in your company? Why does that matter?”
The purpose of a Chief Value Officer (CVO) is to maximize the value of a business. As CEO of your business your most important role is to serve as the Chief Value Officer (CVO) and maximize the value of the company. To accomplish that, you need to change the perspective of ownership and leadership from a total focus on profit today to a focus of building value for tomorrow.

HOW WE MAXIMize Value
Value acceleration programs
With Strategic Value as the core, the CVO team has developed programs to meet nearly every business situation. From companies in early stages of growth, to those preparing for sale within a short term window, to family owned firms, and businesses looking to create value through acquisitions. Chief Value Officers also provides programs to meet companies’ unique needs in periods of economic challenge.
Family Business Value
Family owned businesses often present unique challenges to maximizing value, however that does not change the importance of value creation for the future. The CVO family business programs take all of these unique challenges, as well as the ultimate long-term desires of each family into account to customize a Strategic Value Acceleration program to meet the needs and wishes of the company and its family owners.
Value Growth through Acquisition
Acquisition, in some situations provides a good way to quickly accelerate the value of a company. It does not work in every situation, it is not always easy to complete, and there is an amount of built in risk. The CVO team can help companies evaluate whether an acquisition would be the right solution to add value, assist in the identification and vetting of potential acquisition candidates, participate on the acquisition team, and assist in the development of the integration team.
Value Growth in Challenging Times
Challenging times can sometimes present great opportunities for building Strategic Value. The CVO team has extensive experience helping companies not simply survive challenging times but reassess, rethink and innovate so that they come out of the crisis stronger and more sustainable than ever.
