“Tom Garrett has achieved mastery of the finance, treasury and leadership roles. I reported directly to Tom as Assistant Treasurer of Magma Copper and he has been my mentor ever since. Tom has the leadership and communication skills, technical expertise, negotiating prowess and sense of timing to deliver on corporate goals while maintaining strong relationships with all stakeholders. I can still hear him telling me, “the CFO must assure that the company always has an adequate source of durable liquidity”, and that, “deals get done at the intersection of fear and greed”. Tom built a strong Treasury & Finance Team and was known for developing people that could be promoted to critical leadership positions throughout the company. Tom coached our team to strive for excellence and to always be prepared by anticipating possible outcomes of key decisions, external factors and the needs of the Board, CEO and others on the executive team. We never met with investment bankers without first meeting as a team to prepare for and brainstorm what insightful analysis and witty comments they were about to bestow upon us. Under Tom’s leadership, people accomplished goals that they had previously thought to be impossible. He instilled in everyone a healthy sense of urgency and the highest level of integrity. I’m grateful that Tom cared about my future and had the patience to teach me key career and life skills and personal operating practices, such as time management and prioritization, that have made me a more effective executive. Tom is a good, honest person that I would wholeheartedly recommend to any CEO looking for a strong financial and operating partner.”
