EP#19: The Operating Partner Playbook: Driving Growth, Scale, and Exit Value in Field Services

The growth playbook in private equity has changed. Financial engineering alone doesn’t cut it anymore.

Today, the real value creation happens in operations—and no one knows that better than veteran Operating Partner Richard LeBlanc.

In this episode of FXL, Rick joins Origo CEO Yassin Shaar and RaftrX CEO Gyner Ozgul to break down what it takes to scale from $10M to $200M, support founder-CEOs, and drive enterprise value without losing the soul of the business.

Highlights include:

✔️ The difference between good operators and great ones
✔️ Helping founders evolve from owner to CEO
✔️ Scaling leadership, systems, and service delivery post-acquisition
✔️ The “seagull” problem with some board members—and how to avoid it
✔️ How real operating partners drive exits (not just spreadsheets)

If you’re in PE, field services, or running an ops-focused platform—you don’t want to miss this one.
