1. Dear Hiring Manager,
Literally every position I have served in has included some challenge related to business expansion or
turnaround management and this is where I truly excelled as a leader of change, growth, and
improvement. Whether through process redesign, complete organizational overhaul, introduction of
automation and technology solutions, implementation of company policies or development of stronger
standards, my results have been consistent and repeated throughout my career.
Thus, if you are seeking a seasoned and results-proven manager to enact change and improvement in
order to drive bottom-line improvements in productivity, efficiency, quality, safety, customer service,
and both operational and financial performance, I am the leader you are looking for.
I am distinguished from many of my peers; besides being a manager, I am a leader-a highly visible
one-who takes personal interest in my teams and their performance, and who truly enjoys mentoring
and nurturing the individual talents and potential of my employees, ultimately producing maximum
benefit and performances for the company.
For the right position and challenge, I am available for relocation. My compensation requirements
are obviously dependent on my factors, including scope, growth opportunities, and location.
Your organization intrigues me knowing you realize the importance of inspiring teams to reach new
heights, which is the very type of vision that has defined and propelled my career. I look forward to
discussing your objectives and how we can work together to accomplish them.
Retired MSgt. USAF - Honorably Discharged 22 Years of Service.

With best wishes,
Keith Dillon
