” Michael, you have shown yourself to be an important component in the continuing reinvention of JanPak that began nearly two years ago…Your messages are well received, they in many ways reinforce our strategic imperatives (critical messages I believe is how you say it), and your interactions with the sales team have spurred many of them to rethink, refocus, change, and in some cases it’s already delivering greater results. Our goal of doubling our business (in the next 5 years) has a better chance of realization as a result of our UNCOMMON partnership… Last, I like you.
You’re a good person, a good friend, and a true professional. You have passed my test of being someone I can play 18 holes of golf with on a nice day. Myself and my team learn from your counsel as you do from us. The best relationships run two directions, not one way — our partnership is most definitely a two-way street that invites many worthwhile stops along the way… Thank you!”
