Qualifications of Search Firm The SGR Advantage SGR's executive recruiting services are unequaled. SGR provides a high degree of personal attention to each executive search that we conduct, and our role is to find the person who is the very best possible match for you. SGR devotes a tremendous amount of energy to understanding your organization's unique culture, environment, and local issues to ensure a great "fit" from values, philosophy, and management style perspectives. Finding "qualified" candidates is not very difficult —the hard part is finding qualified candidates who are the right "fit" for your organization. A "leading edge" candidate and a "safe harbor" candidate often look the same on paper but will have profoundly different impacts on your organization. SGR brings practical experience from years of city management and from almost two decades of successful recruitment. The Network SGR maintains one of the most extensive private networks of local government professionals in the nation. in addition to providing employee recruitment and development services to almost 200 cities, counties and utility districts in four states, SGR previously managed member relations for over 250 government agencies in 23 states for the Innovation Groups (IG). Accessibility Your search will be handled directly by Alan Taylor and Ron Holifield. Your Project Managers are accessible at all times throughout the search process and can be reached by candidates or clients, even at night and on weekends, on cell phone, home phone, or via email. Trust of Candidates SGR has a track record of remarkable confidentiality and providing wise counsel to candidates and next generation leaders; we have earned their trust. As a result, SGR is typically able to get exceptional prospects to become candidates, even if they have declined to become involved in other search processes, merely because candidates trust SGR to assess the situation well, to communicate honestly and bluntly, and to maintain their confidentiality. Comprehensive Needs Assessment SGR invests an extraordinary amount of effort into understanding the organizational and community culture, environment, and local issues that shape what you are looking for in an executive leader, how SGR can most effectively look for the right match for you, and how SGR can most effectively assist prospective candidates in understanding your unique needs and circumstances. Responsive to You When a problem arises or you have questions, you can count on SGR staff to be available, to be prepared, and to respond promptly. 32
