and promise.
We invite you, therefore, but do not require you, to sign the following waiver.

• Your estimation of the applicant’s potential for organizational leadership responsibilities
• A comparative review of the applicant’s strengths and weaknesses
• An example, known personally by you, of performance excellence by the applicant
• Knowledge that you have of the applicant’s ability to function in a diverse and multinational
