We are a rather different from a typical advisory firm being much closer to interim executive management, leaders through uncommon challenges and outsourced catalysts for change.

Enhancing shareholder value since 1991

For companies, Grahampton accelerates revenue growth. For investors we create pathways to outsized returns. For all clients, Grahampton strives to “achieve excellence” by being truly exceptional at situation analysis, priority setting, and hard decision making; and leading all efforts with an unstoppable, positive force.

We began delivering management services, the kind of services private equity firms now call “operating partner” work, in 1991.  We are best thought of advisor-partners; senior individuals with unique executive and operating backgrounds, who are a rare combination of “strategist” and “implementer.”  We tend to work with Chairmen, CEOs, Executive Teams, and Investors on the mandates that management can’t seem to get on top of and others just don’t want to touch.

We love difficult situations, and not only survive but thrive in times of crisis and challenge  

For nearly three decades the focus of Grahampton has been helping organizations drive for results. More often than not this has meant a focus on top-line revenue growth. We think of our management services in this way. We all want results, it’s that simple. It is getting to results that often proves a challenge. Each organization, each management team must follow its own path, and it is the path, its strategy and plan that matters. What three decades of management and investment services has taught us is that results depend on performance, and performance depends on management and its plans. To us, the people who lead teams are critically important though they are only half the solution. Management’s strategy and plans, the organization it creates, and its management systems it builds are equally important. Excellence in planning, excellence in organization and management systems, and excellence in hands-on management are what we believe are the surest ways to achieve superior performance and deliver the results businesses want.
