Dear Mather Smith,
After careful deliberation with the Board, we have decided to award you the position of Chief Networking Officer, effective on March 30. As you must be well aware, the present CNO, Mr. Riley Johnson is retiring soon. This is why we felt the need to find an immediate replacement for him. We believe that you are the best candidate. Mr. Johnson will still be with us for the next week, which will give you some time to train under him. He has told us that he would be happy to do this for you.
Also, please approach Ms. Ramsey from the HR Department, as she would like to discuss with you more details about your promotion.
I am excited and happy for this new career path you will embark on and believe you truly deserve it.
Sincerely,
Riachard
