You are an advocate for clarity not only for so-called executive resumes and in my view, all resumes. Here in Canada's lower 50 states and D.C. we have credentialed peers advocating the wholesale use of personal pro-nouns, Eeek! While I recognize resume crafting is an art form, not a job app, there are a few guidelines of professional exposes that apply to all documents and certainly to the resume. Suffice: Bravo and not just because we seem to agree, but because you state your cases so well. Carry on please.

Can't stress enough how important it is for resumes to be focused, clean and concise so they don't wind up in the bin. Executives can be very hard to please, since they have accomplished so much, and so it is up to us to ensure that we put in as much as we can without making the document look too cluttered or off base.
