As you will discover, I am a highly capable individual with years of construction and accounting management experience. I've worked for multiple companies in which I quickly trained and advanced through the ranks. I possess a management style that incorporates motivation through positive feedback and support; plus straightforwardness and open communication that builds trust and fairness.
You will find me an excellent managerial candidate with whom a personal interview would be beneficial. I will confirm receipt of this correspondence within the week and perhaps hope to set up an appointment to meet with you at your convenience. In the meantime, thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Nicholas C. Chappell

MANAGEMENT PHILOSOPHY
In today's competitive world, the best way to ensure organizational success is to delight the customer. Today’s customers -- and tomorrow’s -- want responsiveness, low cost and high quality. If a company does not meet or exceed the customer’s needs, their competition will.
It’s no longer enough for employees to simply "embrace" change: continuous improvement must become a way of doing business, where people actively seek improvements and where systems and processes support and drive initiative. Trust is the key. The work environment must be such that people work without fear, within a culture that encourages pride in both personal and organizational accomplishments.
