Writing a good LinkedIn Recommendation

“In addition to introducing new practices and processes to our office that transformed our day-to-day operations, Dean introduced me to Dogging!”

FWIW … I’d be a *lot* more likely to hire someone with that on their resume/profile than I would someone with “Dean is professional and valuable member of the team and I hope he does well in future”. For multiple reasons, but first and foremost: both are equally untrue, but one of them shows a sense of humour, and the other assumes the reader is stupid enough to be suckered by blind lies.
