4. Fundamentals of Private Equity

PRIVATE EQUITY, PRIVATE KNOWLEDGEThe PE industry is one of the most lucrative ones. It's also complex to understand, if you don't have the right guide. A lot of techniques, knowledge and hands-on tips are not usually shared. Usually, what would find would be generic courses with theoretical materials in terms of valuations or general job descriptions, not going into the details of fund operations, the job, or other elements. That is, until this course appeared. MAKING PRIVATE EQUITY PUBLICUnlike other courses, this course is extremely comprehensive and covers all main areas of the Private Equity profession. Not just valuation. Not just the job activities. Not just fundraising and fund marketing. ALL of them. This is due to my experience in terms of coaching both associates and partners in PE firms, from doing performance coaching for their everyday role, to strategic persuasion and negotiation coaching for fundraising. This course is the result of that experience. This extremely comprehensive course is divided into four main modules: The Fundamentals, where we cover the basics of PE. What PE actually does, how it compares to other industries, how companies are run, how funds and firms work;Valuation and Models, where we cover the most frequent valuation methodologies and models, including multiples-based and DCFs, as well as when to use each and traps to avoid;The different Investment Categories, from VC to Growth Capital, LBOs and Special Situations, each with unique investment profiles and dynamics;How Fund Creation and Fund Management actually work, from raising capital from institutional allocators (from fund marketing to selling and negotiating) to actually running a fund (who does what at the end of the day);THE PERFECT COURSE. FOR WHOM?This course is targeted, naturally, at anyone who wants to master the fundamentals of the private equity industry. More specifically, the ideal student for this course is someone who: Wants to know more about the different types of Private Equity investments;Wants to learn more about how PE funds are created, raised and negotiated;Wants to know how PE valuations and modeling are usually performed;Wants to know all about the different activities at different stages of a fund;Wants to know all the possible provisions that can be negotiated when an investment is made in a fund;LET ME TELL YOU. EVERYTHINGSome people - including me - love to know what they're getting in a package. And by this, I mean, EVERYTHING that is in the package. So, here is a list of everything that this course covers: How the Private Equity industry positions itself vis-a-vis other such as Venture Capital (which it includes), Hedge Funds and Investment Banking;What are the types of activities with a PE fund throughout the stages of sourcing, investing in and monitoring opportunities;How PE funds actually work, from fundraising from allocators to deploying capital, as well as how operations are financed, and the provisions negotiated with investors;The two main value drivers in PE investments (namely LBOs or leveraged buy-outs), which are financial engineering and value creation, and which each consists of;How PE-owned companies, namely leveraged buy-out companies behave differently from public ones, in terms of their strategic focus (quarterly shareholder value focus versus full potential), how the business is restructured and OPEX (operational expenditures) minimised, as well as how talent is incentivized for performance;The usual approaches to valuation (both two multiples-based approaches - trading comparables and transaction comparables, as well as the DCF - or Discounted Cash Flows - methods), as well as when each of these make sense;How to perform a trading comparables analysis, researching a company and its key value drivers, defining the universe of comparable companies, corroborating that information, spreading their key financials, and finally determining their multiples, and a valuation range for the target company;How to perform a transaction comparables analysis, finding transactions on companies similar to the target one, corroborating these with financial/deal information, de-biasing the price for premiums paid and/or synergies, spreading the key transaction information, determining their multiples and a valuation range for the target company;How the DCF, of Discounted Cash Flows method works, by calculating the FCF or Free Cash Flow of the company for a stabilization period, with the goal of calculating its TV or Terminal Value. Then, normalizing that TV based on the capital structure of the company (debt/equity), using the WACC or Weighted Average Cost of Capital, and finally, using a discount factor to discount those cash flows based on the present value of money;How the Venture Capital asset type works, using a spray-and-pray model for startups focused on exponential growth (J-Curve growth or hockey stick growth), as well as the relationship between the board member (usually a fund GP) and the startup founding team, which is frequently demoted or replaced with growth;How Growth Capital or Growth Equity works - investing in companies that are at the intersection of late-stage VC and early-stage traditional Private Equity, consisting of minority stake investments in companies that just need small cash injections - low-risk and low-reward;How Leveraged Buy-Outs work, from determining the attractiveness of an investment (robust cash flow, large asset base, operational fat that can be trimmed), as well as how operations are run (restructurings and divestitures to achieve full potential within 4-5 years, with a set of 4-5 key initiatives, and talent incentives for performance, either with actual equity or phantom equity, as well as the monthly focus on OPEX reduction to pay off debt interest);How Special Situations investments work, both Distressed Debt and Turnaround Capital, focusing on helping ailing companies and profiting from their recovery, and why regulatory/legal issues prevent mainstream expansion of these investments;The institutional fundraising process, from fund marketing, to information providing in data rooms, to due diligence and allocation;The context of fund marketing, including myths such as that keeping funds hidden will not attract regulator attention or will make the fund manager have mystique and exclusiveness, to actual regulatory roadblocks to fund marketing;The usual fund marketing channels and materials, from simplified versions of fund offering documents, interviews/features with the fund management team and CEOs, periodic updates and others;How to actually sell a fund to an allocator using the PPP model (performance, processes and persuasion). Focusing on performance, on the sophistication of processes (ideally, institutional-quality), but also leveraging my unique persuasion tools to better convince investors;What type of standard and bespoke provisions investors usually request, from changes in fees (management fees, performance fees, co-investment fees, many others), to complex clauses related to investment restrictions, secondaries sales, transparency requirements, fund financing restrictions, GP commit and devotion, GP removal rights, among others;How to negotiate provisions with allocators, from strategic tactics such as reducing allocation size or breaking up syndicated groups of investors, to in-the-room tactics such as Implementation Intention or empathy to disarm the other side and make them more receptive;The role of the key players in a fund, from associates, to VPs and principals, to GPs, as well as the tasks that each performs in a fund;The tasks at different stages of a fund's lifetime, from sourcing opportunities (first round of vetting, meeting with intermediaries, initial risk/reward projections, indicative offers) to investing (complete due diligence, deal modeling and financing, deal consideration, negotiations), to post-investment monitoring (preparing exits, supporting companies as a board member) to fund-end activities (fund extensions, fund restructurings, rushed sales including possible sponsor-to-sponsor transactions, and more);Stage-independent activities in a fund that are always necessary, including reporting (internal and external), or helping with possible LP secondaries sales;MY INVITATION TO YOURemember that you always have a 30-day money-back guarantee, so there is no risk for you. Also, I suggest you make use of the free preview videos to make sure the course really is a fit. I don't want you to waste your money. If you think this course is a fit and can take your knowledge of PE to the next level. it would be a pleasure to have you as a student. See on the other side!...

Instructor Symon He hosts near daily LIVE office hours on TikTok 10:30PM PDT. Find him @SymonHe. Kristen Barker - 5 Stars"Clear and understandable. Excellent, useful excel templates. I appreciated the optional modules that clarified terms as well as more advanced information." Dan Heffley - 5 Stars"Clear, concise, excellent pacing, with great examples, and numerous other resources."Noelima Salama - 5 Stars"Good presentation and message transmission. Factors in those who already have the knowledge and those who don't." Who is the Startup Equity Calculator for?                      •           New business owners            •           Startup founders            •           Co-founders            •           Entrepreneurs So, you have a great business idea. You grab your two best friends, get all excited, and then start a company together. In your haste to get started, you and your two cofounders decided to divide the equity evenly in thirds-it seemed the obvious and fair choice at the time. Two months later, just as you're starting to get some traction, one of your friends changes his mind and drops out entirely. But for the work that he did initially, he believes he should still get to keep his 1/3 share of the company. The two of you left are now essentially doing all the work, but for only 2/3 of the company. Still worth pursuing? Maybe. But you definitely won't be happy. 'Deadweight' cofounders with significant equity stakes can make it difficult to attract new team members or investors, among other issues. Don't make this easily avoidable mistake. My course and my calculator will allow you and your cofounders to have a collaborative and transparent conversation about how much of the company each person should get.  Juan Campos - 5 Stars"The resource materials are worth the course ALONE. On top of that, everything is explained clearly and with very good examples. You end up not only owning the knowledge, but also having the toolkit to act upon it." Guarav Bansal - 5 Stars"Excellent course and explained in a very simple manner. Perfect use of text, side-video, traversing the excel workbooks, etc. The excel workbooks are extremely helpful for understanding the concepts and for ready plug n play. Thanks!"Look, starting a new venture is hard, but having to figure out what is fair for each cofounder shouldn't be. By taking this course and utilizing my easy-to-use Startup Equity Calculator (UPDATED to handle up to 7 cofounder slots-more than what 99.99% of you will need), you'll learn how to avoid this unfortunate, yet totally avoidable, situation. You and your team might even have fun with the pie slicing exercise! Through this course, you'll learn what you should factor into your equity pie considerations and how to use a systematic approach for calculating each founder's fair share, both collaboratively and openly. While this course isn't intended to provide you with the correct solution," it will give you and your team a great starting point to move your important conversation forward. More importantly,  it'll make it easier and less awkward to talk about who should get how much and why. Deciding and agreeing on how to divide the initial equity pie is no trivial task, but this tool will help get the conversation going on the right path by forcing you and your cofounders to decide on what are the key milestones for your venture and how each of you are going to be making your contributions. What if your starting a more traditional business? Whether you're going for a high-growth type of startup or a more traditional startup with known benchmarks for revenue and cash flow, I've got you covered. I'll explain to you which of the two frameworks and tools you should use depending on the type of venture you're starting up. Feel free to take a look at the preview lectures to check out the calculators in action, and you'll see how they can help you and your cofounders have a smart equity conversation. Good luck and happy slicing!~Symon...

6. Organizational Leadership in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Many courses in the diversity, equity and inclusion field acquaint the learner with definitions and concepts that are commonly shared in the field but not much strategy to implement such efforts. The Organizational Leadership in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (ODE&I) specialization introduces concepts and strategies that foster greater DE&I effectiveness across organizational planning, programming, training and assessment. The goal of this course is to offer emerging DE&I Practitioners tools, best practices, and strategies to best position and launch successful DE&I efforts regardless of where their organizations are on the DE&I continuum.

7. Justice and Equity in Technology Policy

More than ever, technology is shaping, and being shaped by, public policy. This has an enormous impact, particularly for marginalized communities. The artificial intelligence and computer algorithms increasingly driving government and industry decisions—from the allocation of social services to hiring—are reflecting and reinforcing social biases towards women, people of color, and disabled people, among others. Global climate change is having a disproportionately negative impact on low- and middle-income countries, and on historically disadvantaged communities of color in the United States. Communities are increasingly concerned they are not benefiting from government research funding, and that the regulation of emerging technologies is inadequate. The interconnectedness of technology, policy, and equality raises crucial questions for scientists, technologists, and leaders in public policy, civil society, and industry. How can technology be built, implemented, and governed more equitably? How can the concerns of marginalized communities be integrated better into technology and related policies? How should community knowledge and concerns be integrated with technical expertise and scientific evidence in the development of public policies? This course aims to help learners understand how inequity and injustice can become embedded in technology, science, and associated policies, and how this can be addressed. Combining real-world cases with scholarly insights, this course introduces learners to these challenges and offers tools for navigating them. You will learn about: - The landscape of technology policymaking - How technology, and related policies both reflect and reinforce social values, biases and politics - The power and limitations of technology in solving social problems - New ways to think about “experts” and “publics” - The politics of innovation policy The course is designed for people from diverse professional, advocacy, and academic backgrounds. No scientific, technical, or policy background is necessary...
