Dear Director,
I am writing to endorse Ms. Claire Savage’s application to join the Executive MBA Program at the University of Iowa. I have had the pleasure of knowing Clare personally and professionally for over 18 years. Throughout her 12-year tenure at Owl Farm Pharmaceuticals, Claire has consistently demonstrated her capabilities through rising positions of authority. Notably, she has achieved an exceptional sales growth rate of over 120% in the Bakersfield market within the past three years.
She saved Owl Farm more than $72,000 in annual operating expenses before organizing our Accounting department. I have found her to be a fast learner, ambitious leader, and excellent team player. Her qualities would make her an exceptional student for your program. Your program will equip Ms. Savage with the necessary skills, experience, and qualifications for greater responsibilities at Owl Farm in return. If you have any questions about this recommendation, please feel free to contact me.
Kind Regards,
Dr. H. S. Thompson, MD
