2 OUR EXECUTIVE COACHING SERVICES Transition coaching: We have identified challenges that frequently become evident as part of our successful executive search engagements. For many of these challenges, executive coaching has proven to be an effective solution. Executive coaching is increasingly employed by world-class organizations as a result of demonstrated success in increasing executive effectiveness, reducing transition time, and improving team/function cohesion. Some examples of challenges newly acquired executives face include: Need for a comprehensive 100 Day Plan to hit the ground running and effectively communicate, comprehend and satisfy senior leadership expectations of individual and organizational performance with specific milestones and appropriate metrics Need for clear expectations for the new executive s first year objectives, goals, targets, and metrics for success Insufficient knowledge and understanding of specific business strategy implications for the new executive Preparation for rapid assessment of existing team resources, deployment, structure, capabilities, performance, and potential, while learning the most effective means for communicating with and inspiring the team Desire for process to collect clear, honest, consistent feedback on interpersonal communication approaches in order to smooth any rough edges that stand in the way of effective executive performance Tim Garmager, senior partner, is an accomplished, certified executive coach with extensive experience at the highest levels of a wide array of successful organizations from global leaders to entrepreneurial start-ups. This service is offered to clients who wish to deal proactively with these challenges, to enhance the probability of success, and accelerate the speed to accomplish it. Executive coaching is a value adding capability that Pierce Consulting Partners can provide that is strategically aligned with our client-focused retained search business model. 2

3 OUR EXECUTIVE COACHING SERVICES Executive Coaching more broadly: Tim s executive coaching can entail several distinctly different roles, based on the primary purpose for the coaching: Coaching for skills (learning sharply focused on a person's current task, i.e. strategies, methods, behaviors, attitudes, and perspectives associated with success in business). Examples might be coaching an executive regarding behaviors that prevent his/her building followership, or coaching a successful physician recently appointed to lead a physician practice. Coaching for performance (learning focused more broadly any person s present job, typically where the executive feels the need to function more effectively or to address performance issues). Examples might be coaching a traditionally successful professional who has plateaued, or a manager who needs to better understand the difference between managing and leading. Coaching for development (learning focused on a person's future job, typically where the executive needs to prepare for a career move, or to strengthen leadership skills for higher levels in the organization, or to unlearn an overused strength). An example might be coaching a manager regarding self-awareness, or empathy, in preparation for an executive leadership role. Coaching for the executive s agenda (learning focused on the executive s agenda in the broadest sense, typically where the executive has a need for a confidant to offer insight, perspective, and constructive feedback; the coaching sessions evolve in response to the executive s agenda). Examples might be the need for a CEO to share his/her thoughts, ideas, or challenges with a trusted confidant, or a senior executive in need of a trusted advisor who can facilitate a teambuilding exercise. 3

Before we knew it, Tim knew as much about Fallon as our own employees did which allowed him to navigate seamlessly between the leadership team members and other key players in the organization. Tim's approachable and adaptable coaching style allowed him gather information quite easily from a group of executives with varying career objectives and personalities. Additionally, his focus on identifying what people already did well and finding ways to put those strengths to use in new ways worked particularly well within a creative culture like Fallon.Beyond the business benefits of his executive coaching, members of our leadership team found Tim's "personal coaching" equally as important in their lives outside of work which was an added benefit.in short, I would endorse Tim's coaching for any business, big or small. If you have any further questions about Tim's approach or his impact on our company, please feel free to contact me directly." Mike Buchner, CEO, FALLON tgarmager@piercecp.com 5
