Inside Brookfield’s Operating Engine | Adrian Letts, Brookfield Private Equity | Fund Shack Ep. 77
Manage episode 513596216 series 3477169
Brookfield is renowned for running the companies it owns, not just financing them. In this episode, Ross Butler speaks with Adrian Letts, Managing Partner in Brookfield’s Private Equity Group and Head of Business Operations, to explore how the firm’s operator-led model drives value creation from origination through exit.
Adrian explains how Brookfield embeds operators alongside investors, with shared carry, shared accountability, and a shared mandate to transform portfolio companies. He discusses organisational design as a true value lever, why smaller and senior operating teams outperform larger ones, and how AI and digital tools are reshaping performance management and working-capital efficiency across the Brookfield ecosystem.
From aligning incentives and structuring teams to deploying data and AI in real assets, this is a masterclass in how private equity really creates value.
