Question #1
Given his famously decentralized model, does Wigh possess the operational toolkit to personally fix a struggling subsidiary, or is his primary response to replace leadership and seek a new acquisition to mask the weakness?
Question #2
As the pressure to sustain growth through M&A intensifies, does Wigh prioritize maintaining his high acquisition velocity, or does he demonstrate the discipline to divest underperforming past acquisitions, even if it slows reported growth?
Question #3
To counter fragile organic growth, is Wigh’s playbook almost exclusively reliant on acquiring growth through M&A, or does he focus his leadership capital on driving innovation and new product development within existing businesses?
