FOURTH QUARTER 2006 HIGHLIGHTS

A heartfelt thank you to our clients whom we assisted throughout 2006. Some of that work conducted in the fourth quarter, is outlined below. Moving into 2007, we recommit ourselves to all our clients to provide strategic counsel and business communications training of the highest quality, value and tangible benefit.

As part of this global chemical maker's talent development efforts, WPNT served as faculty during a three-week corporate academy. WPNT provided Executive Presentation Skills coaching for these high potential and aspiring managers who gathered for a week outside Zurich, Switzerland. During the final week, scheduled for this February, the teams will present their research and recommendations on existing and potential product lines.
A client facing a high-profile lawsuit looked to WPNT to provide media training for its lead outside legal counsel. The attorney was interviewed via satellite in December on CNBC's "Squawk Box."
The impact of the collapse of a major village development on resort business was the focus of a WPNT Executive Media & Crisis Communications training program for a leading resort company. A dozen sales and marketing executives gathered near Lake Tahoe, California for the program. They were joined by members of WPNT's Press Corps who simulated news media and filed stories.
In October WPNT conducted more than 20 half-day communications workshops for a Philadelphia-based specialty materials company. The company looked to WPNT to prepare managers at multiple locations across the U.S. to effectively communicate the results of a global employee survey as part of a reorganization and strategic redirection.
The president of this global technology company's largest business unit received counsel and critique from WPNT during an employee meeting conducted in Cleveland. Several hundred employees attended in person with several hundred more attending throughout the world via webcast.
WPNT's Alison Freeman led a two-day training program for three dozen field managers at a major Texas utility company. The program focused on presentation skills and media training. The session - staffed with seven WPNT trainers and seven audiovisual technicians - prepared managers for interaction with local media, civic organizations and city councils.

The president and top officers from an energy client in Houston participated in a strategic messaging workshop in preparation for an IPO in 2007. A WPNT associate experienced in investor relations helped the team develop its communications plan and key messages.
Charting a new operational strategy for the local symphony, the future of its in-house publishing and more effective client meetings were some of the topics simulated during a WPNT Executive Communications Coaching program for the Seattle office of this well-known business consulting giant. Similar programs were also conducted in the quarter for the Palo Alto and San Francisco offices.
WPNT provided strategic consultation for a nuclear client in advance of a potentially controversial and contentious - but ultimately successful - public meeting conducted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The public meeting was called to address concerns raised by a special interest group regarding site security and the facility's ability to thwart a terrorist attack.
Now in its third year, WPNT continues to support this leading executive search firm with multi-tier training for its partners and consultants. Another of the basic, Executive Presentation Training programs was conducted near Chicago. A third tier
of training is in development.
In New York City WPNT prepared a medical doctor in advance of a White House summit on a high profile public policy initiative. We prepared the doctor for a live satellite interview broadcast internationally on CNN.
WPNT conducted the second in a series of customized programs designed specifically for an international client. The program is aimed at senior managers, including potential incident commanders. The training in Ohio involved a full day of executive speech coaching followed by crisis media training, including a customized mock crisis scenario.
WPNT senior associate Rhonda Hughes took leaders from a Houston energy client through two days of speech coaching and presentation training in advance of an all-employee meeting. The president and top leaders participated in two days of dry runs and rehearsals in preparation for an event designed to celebrate the successes of 2006 and motivate employees for continued high performance in 2007.
