To Whom It May Concern:

I am going to tell you why I will recommend Jeffrey Sanow as a speaker or trainer for your organization.

Periodically, we bring in a speaker to educate and motivate our team in a way that they cannot get from the usual sources. It is my role in our organization to select the speakers. Jeffrey Sanow was recommended to us by a trusted friend, who I must say was spot on in his recommendation.

In addition to a strong and confident voice, Mr. Sanow has a great front of room presence. Having served as a volunteer in the Peace Corps, only to follow that up with over two decades of service in the highest levels of the CIA, Jeffrey Sanow brings a vast knowledge of domestic and global affairs to the table.

His presentation to our team was so thought provoking that it turned into over an hour of Q & A, with all issues raised, answered both adroitly and completely by Mr. Sanow. Isn’t that what you want from a speaker?

That is why I confidently give Jeffrey Sanow my highest recommendation.

Sincerely,

Mark Laytin
President, NY Metro ACT
