On the eve of even the most inconspicuous holiday, most employees have a fair question: "What gift to present to the leader for the umpteenth time?" To choose the most practical present that fits into the concept of office subordination, you should understand the wishes or needs of the boss.
Views
There is a certain hierarchy of presents for employees and managers:
- traditional, time-tested gifts (expensive sets of pens, diaries in comfortable embossing, cufflinks);
- hobby stuff;
- gifts that strengthen team spirit.
Traditional
Giving preference to traditional presents, it is also worth considering the cost and form of congratulations. If the gift is the result of a personal initiative, it is worth choosing things that are neutral in value so as not to disrupt relationships with the team. This kind of gift for the leader can be selected from a line of simple stationeryaccessories - sets of office pens complete with business card holder or desktop pen holder.
Presents useful for hobbies
If the leader is seriously involved in any sport, you can safely pick up a present from the category of a hobby - the modern industry has introduced a whole line of figures of athletes. Made in different scales, figurines fit perfectly into any office interior and enliven the working atmosphere.
If the boss is a runner, you can give a figurine of a colorful world running star, but if the boss prefers winter sports, you can easily present table snowboards or figurines of skiers. What other gift to the head to choose? If he's a boxer, give him a durable ceramic figurine of Muhammad Ali.
Team-building gifts
To strengthen and constantly feed the team spirit is encouraged by the visualization of joint victories. You can present an original gift to the leader in the form of a collective collage or a photo book with joint winning pictures for the past period. This will help to focus on achievements and at the same time emphasize the importance of each employee. You can hang such a present both in the office of the boss himself, having issued a book in a leather cover, and in the reception room, in full view of everyone.
Choosing an original gift for a male leader from a team, you can pay attention to a joint trip out of town for the weekend. But similarsurprises need to be carefully planned and negotiated with other employees.
For the soul
A chic gift for a male leader from the team - a colorful aquarium in the office. Quiet gurgling perfectly relaxes, the modern pace of life requires a constant search for a source of inspiration and joy - and the fish are in the first place. Presents of this kind skillfully complement the interior, relieve the strict atmosphere of the office and improve the atmosphere. When choosing the filling, you should seek the help of a consultant: he will most effectively arrange a fish company for living in an office aquarium, and also advise on the optimal lighting of the tank that meets the standards of office space.
Defender of the Fatherland Day: choosing a present
No less important is the gift to the leader on February 23rd. In this case, it is worth approaching the choice of a presentation more scrupulously. This holiday is not just old-fashioned and solemn - it emphasizes the courage and resilience of each member of the stronger sex. Therefore, the present must be thematic, small, but certainly pleasant.
A good gift for the leader on February 23 - a decorated bottle of cognac. Modern masters of manual decoupage will create any design and can also complement the gift with themed glasses or glasses. The number of items in the gift set will be limited only by your imagination. It is quite acceptable to supplement the set with a thematic decanter. Colors and pictures can be combined with photo cards or wish inscriptions.
You can also pick up a collectible flask. Many souvenir shops offer the widest selection of themed gifts of amazing quality. Tin flasks can be decorated, decorated in patriotic or playful motifs and complemented by a bag that can easily compete with a minibar. Also, such a present often comes with keychain caps or table books with photographs.
Birthday
It is no less difficult to choose a birthday gift for a male leader. A birthday is inherently a family celebration, but congratulations from the team will also complement the festive mood of the boss. There is an opinion about the irrationality of a present in the form of flowers for a man, but a beautiful and impressive bouquet will be the most successful solution for a collective gift, and you can supplement it with good cognac (wine or champagne) and a box of excellent sweets.
No less practical would be a gift for a male leader from the team in the form of a brand new office chair. Every year, manufacturers improve their most popular models, thereby simplifying their operation. Suppliers always guarantee excellent quality, follow-up service, and also offer the possibility of gradual payment. The line of comfortable chairs is presented both in leather versions and models with a reinforced upper cover made of artificial materials.
Another option for a collective present could be equipment for a tourist boss or a hunter. Give a gift to your bossof the team, you can perform some kind of mini-sketch or prank, so that the surprise will be remembered for its emotional message and please the chef for many, many years. An interesting addition to this kind of offering can be a fun set of tourist food: souvenir shops offer mini-sets with the famous “tourist breakfast” canned food and comic pictures.
Present for boss
It's harder to find a gift for a female leader. Bosses try to keep their distance from employees, so the gift should not violate the designated boundaries. A present for March 8 or New Year should be chosen with the expectation of the romanticism of every woman. An ideal gift for a female leader, presented in the form of decorated balls for the Christmas tree. Moreover, modern needlewomen provide a huge selection of similar vintage-style toys that saturate the holiday with family comfort and warmth.
What else to choose a gift for the leader? A set of paintings by modern masters would be appropriate, which would complement the existing interior and bring a piece of originality and individualism into it. The master himself will help to select canvases of a certain theme, if he describes in detail the prevailing colors in the office, the atmosphere, the character of the boss and, in fact, the wishes of the donors themselves.
What not to give a female boss
Kitchen arsenal is worth missing out on, no matter what the wishes may sound when offering such a gift. Such presents will still violate the unspoken subordination between the boss and hercolleagues. Every woman perfectly determines the need for this or that kitchen gizmo, so imposing your opinion or penetrating the personal life of the leader is not a good idea.
Also, do not give perfume or neckerchiefs to a female leader. It is very difficult to navigate a person’s personal preferences, especially without being his friend. Perfumes, watches and jewelry are the prerogative of the family and loved ones, so things from this group of gifts should be immediately neglected.
The list of inappropriate presents also includes everything related to he alth (only he alth workers will appreciate pressure, sugar or phonendoscopes). Promoting a he althy lifestyle and self-improvement is not the best topic for a gift to a manager. But a certificate for the purchase of good cosmetics will come in handy.
