etter of Recommendation
MBA Selection Committee
State University of Some State
This is a formal letter of recommendation for John Smith. Mr. Smith has been serving diligently as my direct assistant for the past three years. Mr. Smith has discussed with me on numerous occasions his desire to pursue an MBA degree from Some State University. In this regard, it is my sincere opinion that he would be an ideal candidate for Some State University’s MBA program.
Mr. Smith has been able to consistently demonstrate not only his excellent work ethic and a dedication to the firm’s success but he has regularly displayed strong leadership skills. His willingness to work long hours and to improve his skill sets have resulted in extremely high performance reviews for each year that he has been employed here. For example, during the last business cycle Mr. Smith developed and successfully implemented a plan to improve the efficiency of our production department. While Mr. Smith’s business process reengineering effort was a significant undertaking it was also very positive for the firm and he was awarded accordingly with a formal recognition for his contribution to the firm’s business.
Finally, while Mr. Smith’s role within the firm is as a direct assistant, this role also entails that he take an informal leadership position within the firm. Since Mr. Smith must communicate with other constituents within the organization representing my authority, his advice and input is often sought from others within the firm who recognize the unique insight that he has gained during his tenure with the firm.
In this regard, Mr. Smith would not only make a fine addition to your MBA program but also has much to contribute to the program through his willingness to engage and collaborate with others. I welcome any further inquiry in this matter and may be contacted at any time accordingly.
