I don't know her so your help in setting up the meeting would be a= ppreciated. Please coordinate with TJ Black (3-5800). -----Original Message----- From: =09Donovan, Terry W. =20 Sent:=09Friday, June 29, 2001 9:09 AM To:=09Belden, Tim; Black, Don; Presto, Kevin M. Subject:=09RE: deal review My conversations with Chris have been along the same lines - Personally the= modeling thing is a very minor concern to me. That is only one component = of what we are doing and, based upon what I have heard about Chris, he will= be able to pick it up quickly. Obviously his mind is on other things righ= t now but I am very comfortable that he would be able to add value to our e= ffort. In Suzette's case, again she obviously wants to develop her skill set but I= think she would be a good fit. Tim, I agree with your point that Kevin mi= ght be the right person to follow-up with her. -----Original Message----- From: =09Belden, Tim =20 Sent:=09Friday, June 29, 2001 9:01 AM To:=09Black, Don Cc:=09Donovan, Terry W.; Presto, Kevin M. Subject:=09RE: deal review I spoke to Chris Ahn last Friday. He left for his wedding and honeymoon on= Monday or Tuesday of this week. He has two concerns. The first is that h= e doesn't want to flake on east power structuring. I told him that Presto = should be able to smooth that over. The second one is that he isn't sure t= hat he has yet developed the modeling skills that are necessary for this ty= pe of heavy lifting. He is smart and hardworking, but I personally haven't= witnessed his modeling skills nor does he have a "stamp of approval" via a= RAC, structuring, or Fundies rotation. I suggested that he have a heart t= o heart with Terry to assess whether his current skills are up to snuff. T= erry, have you had that discussion yet???? What is your independent assess= ment of his capabilities???? As far as the Portland thing goes, I would ta= ke Chris in Portland in a heartbeat. If you would like me to call Suzette = I'd be happy to. Presto might be more effective since her alternative is a= rotation in east power. -----Original Message----- From: =09Black, Don =20 Sent:=09Friday, June 29, 2001 6:33 AM To:=09Belden, Tim; Presto, Kevin M.; Dietrich, Janet Subject:=09deal review Terry Donovan has dug up another two candidates, but both are on the fence.= Could either or all of you volunteer to call them and discuss the benefit= s of joining this effort? The pitch should center around the broad reaching interface within both the= EES and EWS organization, the exposure to the entire risk management proce= ss from cradle to grave, and eventually, good face time with many of the se= nior leaders within both organizations as they present their research findi= ngs. This is a very hard group to recruit for, so anything you can do would be a= ppreciated. Send me a mail if you intend to help. =20 Suzette Emmons - She had some interest and is preparing to rotate but is le= aning towards the SE Power Origination group in ENA because she is looking = for modeling and commercial experience. I think she would be a good fit (a= nd also might want to go to Portland) and would like to figure out a way to= get her. She would be another good candidate for a phone call. Chris Ahn - He had already committed to rotate through Power Structuring an= d was scheduled to begin following return from his honeymoon in a couple of= weeks. He is reasonably interested in our opportunity (and following that= by going to Portland to work in Tim's group) but had concerns about walkin= g away from his commitment to structuring. By the time he left he was almo= st ready to join us but wanted to think about it some more. He is definite= ly someone that we could sway with a call from the right person.
