Cover Letter
Dear Sir,
My business experience has been a great opportunity to build managerial and leadership
competency, complementing the knowledge I acquired from my commercial and
administration studies.
Consequently, I believe that I have gathered the skills qualifying me as a potential
candidate to the available position.
My approach to business is based mostly on goal setting.
I identify client’s needs, analyze and set an innovative and aggressive plan, I share this
plan with my team to increase positive ideas and then, we propose it to the client himself.
This will allow the team to download their brains on information and creative ideas
concerning their accounts (customers).
Allow the team to prioritize their workload; Keep them focused.
This approach shows the team where their creativity is coming from and how to achieve
better targets and customers satisfaction.
This also will make it clear how to hit the targets and maximize commitment to the
organization’s strategy.
Framing the individual tasks within the plan or the vision, and letting everyone have a say
in some decisions can drive up flexibility and responsibility, this I think, motivates the
team and builds the trust and loyalty needed for a good business/office/employees
atmosphere and environment.
Most of all, the team as I rather call it will enjoy my work style as it is based on mutual
respect as a priority, and the fact they will be channeled and monitored to achieve better
results and targets and thus, better positions in the future.
This will enhance the enjoyment and trust in the company and boost the business.
The impact of channeled and organized planning and goals achieving will definitely bring
higher profits and better results to the company.
I appreciate the opportunity to discuss my qualifications with you, and look forward
to meet you for an interview.
Thanking you for considering my resume, for your time and concern I remain,
Sincerely yours
Georges M. Maragel
