Sample Reconsideration Letter

A reconsideration letter is a letter written to request the reader a reconsideration of an earlier decision made by the reader. The reconsideration letter should be compelling in its contents with appealing reasons to change the reader’s mind and hence should be written in an effective manner but with gentleness.

Dear David

RE: Reconsider your Resignation

I am writing to request that you reconsider your intention to resign as Store Assistant at Grover Precision Industry.

You have shown yourself to be an exemplary employee for the past two years and have had a lot of opportunities to exhibit your skills and knowledge on the company’s products and policies. I have received a lot of favorable comments on your helpful services from your colleagues as well as from our customers.

As such, I would like to consider you for a possible promotion to Store Manager at the next appraisal. I hope that you will reconsider leaving Grover Precision as there are more opportunities for you to grow yourself and your career with Grover’s.

Please feel free to come in for a discussion with me on how to plan your career path with Grover Precision.

Yours sincerely,

Christopher Joey
