"I do appreciate what you have been doing since you have been in your position."

"I have to say I am very encouraged with the beginning of your tenure and the efforts that you have underway."

"I really do believe you are off to a very good start, and I have high hopes for the major policy issues that you are dealing with coming to resolution."

"I know you will look at this in a judicious way. But it seems to me that we might want to establish some different standards."
