" Michael is both wildly creative and organized, has the unique ability to manage both upwards and downwards, and I have personally witnessed him help the production staff around him reach their highest potential.

He's a terrific manager of talent, simultaneously honest while keeping the larger picture always in mind, to make sure the network and the production company also feel heard and acknowledged. 

I would strongly recommend you fully support his leadership and ideas- he has a lot of them and he knows how to make good TV. We would have been lost without him.
