Question #1
When faced with the tension between securing a high-profile new deal to fuel the growth narrative and allocating resources to fix the underlying, unprofitable core business, where does Dalton consistently direct his attention and the company’s capital?
Question #2
Given his track record of prioritizing a forward-looking vision while execution faltered, how does Dalton balance the need to sell the Claritev turnaround story against the need to transparently confront the escalating and potentially existential antitrust litigation?
Question #3
Does Dalton’s focus shift away from a new client immediately after a deal is signed, prioritizing the next strategic “win” over the detailed operational oversight required to ensure the last client is successfully retained and profitable?
