Executive
Summary
When given a choice, executives overwhelmingly
select TLC rather than Lee Hecht Harrison, Right
Management Consultants, Drake Beam Morin, Spherion
and Executive Career Services. Why? Because
no competing firm makes the investment necessary
to provide these benefits: |
| |
|
Primary
executive consulting is performed by Peter
Leets, an executive and entrepreneur
who has achieved Fellow Manager
designation from the Institute
of Career Certification; has
been a Board Member with
the International Association
of Career Management Professionals,
and has assisted hundreds of executives
since 1990. |
|
Never
greater than 9 to 1 executives
to consultant ratio; ensures complete,
imediate attention
|
|
Never greater
than 9 to 1 executives
to administrator ratio, ensures needs are
met at once. |

and implemented by TLC, providing faster,
more targeted and more impactful results |

For these reasons, and many, many
more our executives have a history of finding new
positions in an average time of less than six months,
while the vast majority report they are more satisfied
with their new opportunities than the one they left.
Executive Career Transition
Services

The Leets Consortium
(TLC) helps your executives expand their life and
career options by combining our appreciation of their
unique needs, high-tech global reach and old-fashioned
individual collaboration.
Our focus remains unchanged since
1990. Senior leaders receive executive services provided
by a unique team of executives – a consortium
– who are selected to provide maximum leverage
while freeing executives to do the things only they
can do. We maintain the
lowest ratio of career transition clients in Southern
California to ensure personalized and responsive services.
We invite you to visit us and
assess our capabilities. Until we meet, here are highlights
of our executive career transition services.

| Their
Executive Coach |
|
Peter
Leets is the primary coach for all TLC executive
career transition clients. He provides unlimited
personal consulting, and is available to give
supportive services to family members if needed. |
|
He has achieved “Fellow
Manager” designation from the Institute
of Career Certification; has been a board member
with the International Association of Career Management
Professionals; and has assisted hundreds of executives
since 1990. |
|
He assists with understanding
personal needs, identifying and evaluating objectives,
neutralizing potentially negative references,
building a comprehensive marketing plan, developing
and refining presentation skills, marshalling
the specific resources executives may need to
wage a successful search campaign, understanding
how to establish value during the interview process,
and then evaluating and negotiating multiple offers. |
|
TLC has a wide range
of assessments available. When requested we routinely
use the California Personality Inventory and its
Coaching Report for Leaders, developed in conjunction
with the Center for Creative Leadership. It provides
a rich reservoir of ideas and information as people
work their way through the stages of a planned
incremental change process. And, since it is atheoretical,
it can be easily supplemented by, or integrated
with, other assessment tools such as 360°
feedback. |
|
Peter has owned three
businesses, successfully selling the two prior
to TLC to public companies, has been president
of the world’s most active M&A firm
and was an officer of a Fortune 500 company. |
|
He has been directly
involved with corporate governance for almost
two decades, serving on five company boards. |
| |
|
| Their
Advisory Board |
|
The primary
executive coach is complemented by a team of accomplished
professionals who have demonstrated their competence
repeatedly before being selected as a TLC Advisor. |
|
TLC connects executives
to the search community selectively, yet completely.
We make personal introductions to both the local
regional retained search firms and to local representatives
of the national and global firms. Wendi assists
with internet résumé and job lead
postings, handles all
aspects of letter campaigns that are congruent
with geographic and position-specific objectives
and gathers executive internet job leads. |
|
TLC offers corporate
governance assistance for both the “director-to-be”
and the experienced director. When executives
want directorship to be a part of their future,
Ed Merino offers a director and educational roadmap
for aspiring directors, including established
relationships with Harvard and the UCLA certification
program; help with the language of the boardroom,
board expectations; due diligence and potential
liabilities. If they are an experienced director,
we offer access to a rich blend of public board
directors, including Phil Matthews, Tom Mullaney,
Jack Shaw and others. |
|
Assistance with all
transition-related legal matters, including severance
and employment agreements,
business combination and purchase agreements,
is available through our legal community relationships,
including Veronica Gray, Michelle Reinglass and
Mark Budensiek. |
|
Assistance exploring
entrepreneurial opportunities, starting a business
or buying a franchise, is
provided by specialists, including Rick Eggleton,
Trey Johnson, Rick McCarthy and Rick Usher. |
|
When financial assistance
with 401k roll-overs, estate planning, stock option
exercise planning, etc. is needed we turn to Richard
B. Manchester, Nella Webster and others. |
|
For those wishing
to explore early stage companies as a leader or
investor, we offer access to Tech
Coast Angels through Peter’s membership
and to Angel Strategies. |
| |
|

much more effectively and efficiently. |
