"I am writing you to express Rockwell Automation’s recognition and appreciation of the superb service we have received from a key member of the CBRE team. Tim Reynolds has been part of the CBRE / Rockwell Automation team for over four years now. Tim began early in the relationship as an account management team member responsible for coordinating broker activities in North America and working with our Global Real Estate Managers to determine the best transactional solutions. As globalization has caused our team to become more strategic in our solution delivery, Tim has developed into a key resource for our team. He has boldly taken on the challenge and has been able to assimilate and develop a deeper understanding of our business and organization. In addition, his ability to manage and coordinate all of our projects in North America, Latin America and EMEA is very impressive. Tim’s professional, technical and strategic talents have been and will continue to be an integral part of our team’s ability to deliver the best solutions in an ever changing environment. Please use this letter to communicate our recognition of a job well done." -Alan McGinty, Director Global Real Estate; ROCKWELL AUTOMATION
