Peter Frauenknecht, Chief Financial Officer at Arxada, recently joined senior finance leaders at the WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management Financial Leadership Forum in Düsseldorf to discuss the Performance Effects of Private Equity. Drawing on Arxada’s experience, Peter shared insights on creating sustainable value in a private equity environment, including how organizations build performance, transparency, and momentum under ambitious timelines. Key takeaways: - Transition a carve‑out to an efficient stand‑alone company - Build strong leadership, teams, and a clear culture and organizational set-up - Embed financial discipline through KPIs, cash focus, and aligned incentives - Define a focused value‑creation strategy early - Execute a coordinated, company‑wide operational improvement strategy - Treat exit and capital‑markets readiness as a mindset, not an event Thank you to WHU and fellow participants for a thoughtful exchange.

We’re pleased to highlight the latest contribution from Jędrzej Gromadecki in the April edition of Clinical Services Journal. In his article, "𝐕𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐌𝐑", Jędrzej examines how evidence-based disinfection practices are critical in reducing the spread of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) within healthcare environments. The piece explores the integration of emerging technologies with antimicrobial stewardship programs to bridge current implementation gaps. At Arxada, we support this mission by providing innovative NUGEN® formulations, tested to the current EN Norms indicated as per EU BPR Guidance, that can be applied under our customers' own brands. These formulations are designed to serve as a vital tool for our partners, to address the transmission of MDROs while meeting the latest efficacy standards.

For his grand finale, Professor Pablo (with his trusty banana squeaky toy) teaches one last lesson: focus on what matters and take action with intent. Prioritize the important stuff : Not every toy deserves a squeak. Use your time wisely: Naps, snacks, strategy, everything has a purpose. Encourage healthy debate: Different views = better decisions (except re vacuum cleaners). Plan before you leap: Every zoomie run starts with a quick terrain check. Drive execution through process: Sniff → assess → commit. Talk less, do more: Actions > barks. Act fast on big wins: Treat bag rustles = immediate response. Professor Pablo’s parting words: stay focused, stay intentional, and never underestimate a squeaky banana. #LecturesWithProfessorPablo #Productivity #LeadershipLessons #FrenchBulldogWisdom #WeAreArxada

When utility poles make the news… A recent BBC News story spotlighted newly installed telegraph poles in Kent, drawing some amused comparisons from locals. But behind the headlines is a serious story about durability, performance, and infrastructure resilience. Read here: https://lnkd.in/eR5hH7nU These utility poles are treated with Tanasote®, a proven oil‑borne preservative system designed for demanding ground contact applications. Freshly treated poles may appear bright green at first, but this is temporary, within months, they naturally weather to a more familiar brown, blending into the local environment. More importantly, Tanasote delivers long‑term protection, moisture resistance, and dependable performance where safety and service life matter most, supporting resilient utility networks across Europe. #Infrastructure #Utilities #WoodPreservation #Sustainability #Arxada #WeAreArxada
