Building a successful team and organization goes well beyond the specific position you are filling and the talent you hire. Working with a partner who pushes past the surface, listens with intention, and whose extensive market knowledge and expertise help align your business strategies with talent needs to ensure sustainable growth while minimizing risk ensures your organization’s success now and into the future.
When it comes to building strong teams, clients value Tim’s blended approach of consultant and executive coach. His counsel allows them to react swiftly and intentionally when needed; as one client highlights, “Furst Group was superior in several aspects with what was a challenging search. Tim Frischmon provided expert guidance in the [role] development, as well as advice on how to manage a real curve ball when a potential partnership opportunity appeared late in the search.”
A deep interest in clients’ business strategies enables Tim to partner with and add valuable insights to all aspects of the talent lifecycle and the impact on the organization. Clients depend on his sound counsel and firm grasp on the nuances of the healthcare marketplace. They value his shared vision for success, and because execution needs talent, clients consider Tim a key asset in aligning their business and talent strategies.
He works closely with the board of directors and CEO to assess and identify key strategic imperatives for short- and long-term success in the role. Together they formulate a clear pathway for accelerated performance and goal realization that also helps cultivate a strong candidate experience. This ensures the best possible outcomes for everyone involved in the search—board, CEO, search committee, candidates, and the organization.
Tim’s innate ability to cultivate relationships with talented executives in various stages of their careers is the foundation upon which he has built a robust and comprehensive network in the healthcare industry. For nearly 30 years, Tim has partnered with hundreds of leaders and organizations across the healthcare continuum—payers, providers, life science organizations, and healthcare services and technology companies.
A frequent contributing author for Wharton Healthcare Quarterly, Tim has presented on leadership and talent acquisition for Modern Healthcare, the National Center for Healthcare Leadership, and Health Plan Alliance. He has also participated on the boards and committees of several professional and civic organizations.

During his tenure, he has partnered with fellow board members to reposition the organization to better serve the health and medical ecosystem of Minnesota and the surrounding region.
Born and raised in Minnesota, Tim’s unique style is grounded in his certification as an executive coach from Hudson Institute and his bachelor’s degree in Economics and Business Management from the University of Minnesota-Morris.
