Mr. Jones is able to turn what appears to be a disadvantage into a chance to benefit him and the company. For examples, if he receives a letter of complaint from a customer, he is able to reply in such a way, which not only satisfies the customer but increases his faith in the company. Two years ago, when a serious fire destroyed most of the spinning section in our main factory, Mr. Jones took the opportunity to redesign the layout of the entire area and order safer and more efficient machinery, doubling our previous output.Above all, I have long been impressed by Mr. Jones’s general attitude to his work. Whenever a problem arises, he always seeks a positive solution. Moreover, his determination to find a solution ensures his success as he simply refuses to recognize the possibility that there is no answer.In short, I believe he will be a great asset to your company if he has the opportunity to work there.Sincerely yours,Andy NicholsonGeneral ManagerExercise:Improve the following letter:Dear Mr. John,I want to study in a America university.
