Dear Sherman,    

As you may or may not have heard, I will be leaving ABC on September 1 to begin my own consulting business. That experience may be a “dream come true” or a nightmare–depending on my success or failure. 

Whichever way things turn out, I don’t want to leave without telling you of your contributions to my career. The training offered here has been exceptional, and with diligence you have mapped out the formal training programs beneficial to me and managed to see I got into each one. Additionally, just observing your management style has been an excellent on-the-job case study of course principles. You’ve kept the work challenging and the interactions pleasant. Thank you for providing this working environment that has nurtured my inclination to start and manage my own company. 

I’m sure I’ll be phoning you from time to time for advice as I consult with clients who demand and deserve as much as clients here at ABC.

Yours Truly,
Ken Man
