| While executives at a well-regarded outplacement consulting firm |
| during the summer of 1996, John Salveson and Sally Stetson spotted |
| an industry weakness. They noticed that while many executive |
| search firms did a fine job of recruiting candidates, few took more |
| than a passing glance at corporate culture - the very personalities, |
| procedures and idiosyncrasies that make each organization unique. |
| |
| With a firm belief that it takes more than just a good resume to succeed |
| as an executive, the two outplaced themselves, and founded Salveson |
| Stetson Group, Inc. (SSG). |
| |
| SSG brings an entirely new approach to retained executive search, |
| focusing on corporate culture and assimilation as well as candidates' |
| qualifications. Each assignment has a clear goal: to strengthen the |
| client's company for the long-term by helping it attract, select, develop |
| and retain high-quality members of senior management. |
