The art of generating actionable insights to support critical investment decisions with John Ziegler

This latest episode of Now that’s Significant, has host Michael Howard, the head of marketing at Infotools, interviewing John Ziegler, CEO of Acclaro, a consulting firm that delivers targeted insights for the investment sector. Acclaro helps middle market clients in the M&A ecosystem focus on the right companies and helps management teams focus on the best options for growth, post-close. In his role, John uses his deep experience in management consulting to drive Acclaro’s strategic direction, focusing on the firm’s continued transformation.

In this episode, we give market researchers some inspiration for broadening their approach to their insights operations, particularly in light of the rise in data quality and fraud issues the sector is facing, which even includes the removal of incentives!

While Acclaro's sweet spot is in merger and acquisition space, there are definitely some learnings that can be applied for other industries as well.

We hope you enjoy the show.
