Improving Alpha: Karen Yeyinmen on Strengthening the Institutional Investment Toolkit through Action Research

Can a culture of growth and experimentation in institutional investing unlock deeper-level benefits to improving alpha? Would you be able to risk the old conception of yourself or your organization by exploring new forms of action and inquiry to help identify the best talent through due diligence or to combine two cultures post-Merger & Acquisition?

In the latest installment of the Improving Alpha podcast, Michael Oliver Weinberg speaks with global organization leader and executive coach Karen Yeyinmen to unravel the intricacies of leadership psychology for asset managers (particularly Private Equity firms) and allocators. 

Together, they delve into the transformative power of understanding one’s internal motivations and behaviors to foster sustainable organizational change. Through the lens of action inquiry, Karen provides listeners with a roadmap to align their developmental stage with the challenges of their leadership roles.  

Karen highlights: 

  • her early intellectual awakening to the delicate balance between influencing behaviors and eroding trust.
  • how a practice of action inquiry can be applied in the investment world to accelerate growth and create value through enhanced performance.
  • versatility of the action-inquiry toolkit and how it can be applied holistically or modularly to address specific growth and performance challenges.
  • Understanding center of gravity action logics and how these can be deployed and developed for team success.
  • and more
