CR3 Partners, LLC is a national turnaround and performance improvement firm with offices in Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, and Richmond.

We assist, guide, and collaborate with management teams facing any sort of transition, stress, or distress. Whether outlining strategies to accelerate growth, improving an operating inefficiency, solving a working capital shortfall, providing urgent crisis management, or guiding a company through bankruptcy, our seasoned team of executives will quickly assess, stabilize, and implement the best options for each situation. Our team is relied upon by middle-market companies nationwide who seek senior-level counsel, be it in an advisory or in a more structured interim management or CxO role.

At CR3, we help our clients effect real change.

•   We plan. If you don’t know where you are going, you will never get there.

•   We implement. A plan without execution is a hopeful wish.

•   We drive change. We lead as advisors, interim managers, or executive coaches.

•   We achieve results. Whatever it takes, we get it done.

We are acutely aware of the pressures and challenges of building and running a business. We have all been there as CxO and we are respectful of what it takes. We partner with our clients for success by combining their skills and ours, by pushing and yielding, by striving and daring, and by being the compass when most needed. We are guided in all of our work by several core values including dedication, honesty, and accountability.

When faced with a confusing set of options, when once again battling a recurring problem, when confronting a seemingly insurmountable obstacle, who do you want in the arena with you?

Our team consists of professionals with deep experience in a vast array of industries who create effective strategic, operational, and financial solutions. We bring vision, wisdom, and years of experience to address critical issues in high-pressure situations. Our teams work closely and collaboratively with our clients to address their short-term needs while helping prepare them for long-term prosperity.

Whether outlining strategies to accelerate growth, improving an operating inefficiency, solving a working capital shortfall, providing urgent crisis management, or guiding a company through a bankruptcy, our seasoned team of turnaround consultants will quickly assess, stabilize and implement the best value-maximizing options for each situation. Our team is relied upon by middle market companies nationwide who seek senior-level counsel, be it in an advisory or interim management role.

As an independent advisory firm and restructuring firm, our services and scope are not constrained by regulatory challenges which allows us to roll up our sleeves and serve as an officer, or guide an organization through a process as an objective advisor. Priced and structured for the middle market, our partners are on the front line of an engagement from the first discussion through completion of the work. We specialize in creative solutions with first rate, personalized service.

At CR3, we acknowledge that our work directly impacts our clients' success. Although we are "in the arena" with our clients every day, we are humble enough to recognize that most of our clients are experiencing transition, stress or distress for the first time. Therefore, while we always base our recommendations and action plans on a combination of facts and experience, we always collaborate with our clients in creating those solutions. Finally, we communicate fully and frequently with all stakeholders so our clients and their constituents can see the road ahead.

Our efforts at CR3 are reflected in the great words of Theodore Roosevelt who spoke at the Sorbonne in 1910 about "striving valiantly" and "daring greatly." In what is commonly referred to as the "Man in the Arena," he said:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

We deliver consistent, high-quality work for our clients. We act as positive agents for change, adding value while always maintaining integrity and empathy.

We invest in the personal and career development of all employees through a culture of continuous learning and improvement, mentoring and employee development.

We foster an environment of care, trust and respect while integrating a common set of values.

We will reward employees for their work, contributions and, above all, results. We recognize and value the diverse set of skills and strengths each employee brings to our organization and clients.

We work together towards a common goal, and we always act in the best interest of our firm and our clients.
