Welcome to PER's Blog

Gail McManus, PER Blog

The PER Blog contains my observations on the world of private equity and its people.  Every day I meet and speak with people from across private equity giving me a broad view of the challenges and issues that they face in managing their businesses and their careers.  And it allows me to understand and help resolve some of the human issues that affect the sector.  

I hope you enjoy the PER Blog and that you’re able to take away one or two tips for getting the best out of yourself and the people around you. Let me know what you think, I look forward to your comments and feedback.
