B4INREMOTE-aHR0cDovLzEuYnAuYmxvZ3Nwb3QuY29tLy15eFRyOEFVcnlhay9WcG05MjNKZTAySS9BQUFBQUFBQURWdy9na2V2d1hmbVh5SS9zMjAwL3BlcnN1YXNpb24ucG5n

A client asked me to review a request for an informational interview that he was planning to send to nonprofit managers. He said, “Give it to me straight in the eye.” I did so. 

In response, he said that while difficult to take, he found the feedback inordinately useful, not just in improving his letter but as a lesson in writing, persuasion, and thinking. 

So, I’ve decided to post it as today’s PsychologyToday.com article.
