THE MOST TAILORED SOLUTIONS ON THE MARKET
We are committed to providing real skills and knowledge, acquired over time, utilizing methods including in-person training, live streaming sessions, coaching and mentoring, and online learning. Our customized training solutions are the most tailored on the market.
WHY ENGAGE PIVOTAL180
There are many reasons why we stand out from other firms, but the following is what makes us particularly unique:
- Pivotal180 is focused exclusively on teaching. Institutional and human capacity building is not a side business. It is core.
- Daniel Gross and Haydn Palliser (both Ivy League Professors) personally lead all Pivotal180 training courses.
- We have led deals. Our understanding is from practical transactional experience, not from reading about it or hearing about it from senior people on our team.
- We have trained the top advisors, developers, lenders, and funds across the world.
- We tailor our courses more than anyone else in the market, to meet your needs.
- Our blended solution includes 12 months of access to our online courses, such that your team can review concepts AND dive deeper into topics we do not have time to cover in class.
THE PIVOTAL180 DIFFERENCE
Dedicated to Training
Our team is differentiated from other firms in that it is anchored by finance professionals with decades of experience leading transactions as principal investors and advisors. We can teach transaction and market structures, policy and incentives, financial modeling, and deal management because we have actually done deals. We are intimately familiar with the transaction execution process as well as how to view transactions from the perspectives of the various parties, including developer, equity investor, and lender.
Over the course of our careers, Haydn and Dan have:
- raised billions of dollars in debt and equity
- bought and sold operating companies and infrastructure assets
- advised government and private sector entities on financial transactions, investments, and market structures globally
- served on boards of directors of companies, both public and private
- served as adjunct professors at Ivy League universities in the USA
The most tailored courses on the market
We tailor course content more than any other training organization. We enhance learning by customizing the training to emulate your approach to risk management, internal approval processes, and preferred financial structure. Courses can be tailored to be based on a real deal within your portfolio, including incorporation of the actual transaction documents and country-specific tax regime.
Experience to focus on what matters
The people teaching your class have taught more students than anyone else. Haydn led the largest specialist financial modeling and training team in the world at Corality, and in addition, Haydn and Dan have taught over 600 Masters Degree students over the last 3 years. We have learned what it takes to create engagement and to teach concepts.
Our online platform enables continuous and deeper learning
Learning should not stop when class ends. All participants in our training programs receive 12 months of free access to our self-paced online training platform. This enables students to review concepts covered in class, dive deeper into items we do not have time to broach in class, and to ask questions of the trainers and other students.
It is not just about modeling. We teach you how to transact.
No other training organization goes this deep. Our training solutions include lessons on how to read legal documents, the key provisions of the major Agreements, and items such as how to forecast wind.
FLEXIBLE AND BLENDED DELIVERY OPTIONS
