Risk Management and Other Strategic Issues：A Private Company Perspective.pdf

7th Annual Global CEO Survey | US Private Company Edition Risk Management and Other Strategic Issues: A Private Company Perspective* PricewaterhouseCoopers serves the community of US private companies through adherence to what we call Connected Thinking. This edition of the Global CEO Survey connects the minds of 82 US private company CEOs with one another and with their global middle-market and global large-company peers—in all, nearly 1,400 CEOs worldwide. The focus of the report is risk and its management, supplemented by explorations of other key issues. The findings make clear that US private company CEOs are connected to their global peers. They are engaged with the full spectrum of business issues and often take the same view as large-company CEOs. Extensive analysis of the overall survey results is available at /globalceosurvey.

To help fill that information gap, we are pleased to offer the survey report that follows. It is the latest word in our ongoing dialogue with private company leaders on the issues that most concern them.
