C Michael Cody: I cannot say enough about how good this book really is. If you want to understand in a deep and meaningful way how the world of PE works... this is the book. This is on the list of the few books I will come back to again and again.

Meovin: Good introduction to how PE folks' frame of thought.
A followup workbook for working through the topics mentioned would be great.

Corrina Greico: This is a fabulous book for those considering to sell. It lays a foundation and framework for the layman in easy to understand terms. Specifically, who the players are, how they speak and function, and what the high level expectations are once you transition. It can help one understand what's next, remove much guesswork, and facilitate alignment of objectives!

Lorenzo Zacchia: Libro molto chiaro e puntuale, sicuramente utile per chi si sta approcciando al mondo del private equity come lavoratore di un fondo, come manager/executive/ceo di un’azienda detenuta da un fondo o anche come imprenditore intenzionato a cedere il controllo ad un fondo. In generale per questi profili che si interfacciano per la prima volta con il private equity. Buon acquisto, mi e’ servito molto per assimilare le competenze di base dato che a breve lavorero’ presso un fondo

Petedc: After listening to Adam talk in person at MegaSuccess & Empire Builder I can say he is one of the highest level players in his field, his service in the US Army set him up to be a huge success which he has built on multiple times and continues to do so. He has the keys to get the most out of the situation, how to evaluate it and more.
Brilliantly written, Adam Coffey shows you how PE VC can work in all manner of ways in a book that describes the sector from different perspectives, from start to finish this book is packed with the knowledge you need if we are to cultivate a successful business and navigate these waters to gain maximum value for our future.

Hussain Bandukwala: I just finished "The Private Equity Playbook". It came as a highly recommended book by a friend and I now have a bird's eye of the PE ballpark.

Enough to be inspired & motivated to put more time & focus towards the industry.

I highly recommend the book to anyone who's looking to get a lay of the PE land, the differences between VCs & buyout funds, and how it could benefit them (as an investor in the space, or an employee at PE-backed firms, or perhaps as a business owner who's considering selling to a PE-backed firm, and even a consultant serving the industry).

fitzalling: I read the paperback version - 177 pages. Well-written, read it in one day. Written as if it was a playbook for football, etc. Explains the field of private equity, the rules of the game and describes the players. It uses two examples - Josh who has a business to sell and Rose who has a very responsible job, but is being pursued by private equity companies to work for them. He explains how to evaluate the characteristics of private equity in each of these two scenarios. He carefully labels the approaches of private equity in various circumstances as "neither good or bad, just different."

The author has managed three different companies which have gone through the private equity process. He discusses shareholder agreements, employee contracts and generating wealth. He recognizes that an owner who wishes to sell the business may have different motives - such as, to retire, recognize wealth, continue to operate and grown the business. He encourages owners to recognize the wealth building opportunities from private equity's general need to purchase, grow and sell businesses in 3-7 years because of the structure of private equity.

The book explains the sale process, what...

Edward H. Brown: I purchased "The Private Equity Playbook" by Adam Coffey and, frankly, I couldn't put it down. As a former owner of a nationally recognized middle-market service company. I wish that I had this book a few years ago. The author states that his book is a primer on the private equity business, but I believe that it is much more--I've read other books on the subject, but for brevity, de-mystification and just plain enjoyment this one beats them all--by a country mile.

Coffey is a maverick. He sees himself as a blue -collar CEO/ He left home at 17. After a stint in the Army, he worked as an engineer and then changed to the business side , rising to middle-management with General Electric. Private equity recruiters came calling and he listened. For the last 20 years, Coffey has been President/CEO of three different national private equity backed companies. Each company has grown exponentially under his watch. And, he tells you how.

The author likens the experience to building a winning team. He introduces two players , "Josh" and "Rose" ( a mirror of his former self ). Josh is the CEO of a middle-market service company. He has built the company into a recognized leader in...
