    Corsair’s Chief Operating Officer Amy Knapp recently recorded an episode of Capital Allocators’ Investment Management Operations podcast with Scott MacDonald.   During their conversation, Amy shared insights about the importance of picking the right partners to scale with, and why fostering a collegial, collaborative culture is the foundation for innovative ideas.   “A majority of our firm equity at Corsair is minority owned, which helps set the table from a culture perspective. We've got two women partners, myself included, and we have always enjoyed diversity of thought. We've got people on the team who have grown up in different countries in the world, and who are from different backgrounds and socioeconomic backgrounds. I think we are all curious about one another and that creates an intellectually curious culture. There's not a lot of groupthink. We definitely have a lot of healthy debate around here – respectful debate.” Listen to the full podcast here: https://lnkd.in/eVsynkB4   #privateequity #investmentoperations
