I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Serria Scott for the Outstanding Mentor Award. I began working with Serria last year on a detail with the Business Transformation Office (BTO).

Serria immediately began to display her ability to be not only a leader, but also a mentor and teacher to fellow cohort members. Subsequently, she was appointed as an official mentor for the cohort trainees that followed her. Her mentees have been exceedingly pleased with the level of dedication and support they receive and their confidence in presenting information bureau wide has increased. She is passionate about helping her colleagues grow as employees and is always open and sharing her expertise. She is always facilitating open discussions and helping mentees make connections between their work and real life applications to ensure they see how essential the work is that they do. She always projects a warm, cheerful attitude. I have seen her resolve conflicts and handle other difficult situations with remarkable patience and admirable tact.

In many ways exceeding the expectations of being an effective mentor, Ms. Scott's ambitions, intelligence, and accomplishments complement precisely the community of past recipients and make her highly deserving of the honor of being named an Outstanding Mentor.

It is my pleasure to submit this letter of recommendation on her
