“You have undertaken dozens of projects. With each project, you have taught yourself our agency methods without any counsel, have strived to make the outcomes even more valuable than initially designed, created new projects when everything else had been done and completed projects on or ahead of deadline. There are no areas of improvement in performance, productivity or relationship building.”
