Richard,
Please, let me know what the timetable is. I would like to talk to Anjam a few days before to break the news to him. I hope I can save him for the company and offer him a position in Houston. We desperately need skills he has.

It makes sense to include this as part of the mid-year PRC process by giving him a tangible reward along with his performance feedback. Thoughts? - Dale John Sherriff 27/07/2000 06:44 To: Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Dale Surbey/LON/ECT@ECT, Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT@ECT, Richard Lewis/LON/ECT@ECT, Grant Masson/HOU/ECT@ECT, Stinson Gibner/HOU/ECT@ECT, Joe Gold/LON/ECT@ECT Subject: Re: London Research Group Vince - I agree with your conclusion here. We are still trying to fill Dale's structuring role as well so part of the question is how we announce Steve's lead research role relative to when we know who will take Dale's spot. Perhaps we should just move forward with the Steve announcement the day that Dale moves full time to EBS. I will ask Richard Lewis to take the lead in working with you on finalizing the decision and communcicating the changes to the organization. But I do want to reinforce how pleased we are to have Steve here. He is a wonderfull asset to our efforts. Thanks!

As you know, Dale Surbey, who was managing the London unit of the Research Group, is moving to EBS. Dale did a terrific job helping me to develop the pool of talent we have currently in London. Given that Dale is likely to be transfered to Houston, it's time to nominate one member of the Research Group for a management position. My recommendation is Steve Leppard. Steve emerged not only as the most technically qualified member of the group but also as a natural leader, highly respected by his peers and internal customers. Steve has a very high energy level and is very efficient as a manager and as coach of new talent. His promotion is likely to cause Anjam's departure form Enron. I value technical skills of Anjam, but in spite of my loyalty to him, don't think he is the same caliber as Steve. However, I would not like to lose him and think about moving him to Houston for 2 years. I think that the opportunity to work in Houston, would be a sufficient incentive to keep him in Enron. By the way, his performance feedback has greatly improved. Please, let me know what you think. Vince
