← All farewell messages“You are leaving considerably better than you arrived, which is the entire point of the job, and I am glad I got to watch it happen. Take the new role seriously and yourself slightly less so. My door stays open.”
“Thank you for your contribution during your time on the team. You took on difficult work early, raised your own standard without being asked to, and leave with the respect of everyone you worked alongside. You have my support and a reference whenever you need one.”
“I am contractually obliged to be pleased for you and, irritatingly, I actually am. You have been excellent throughout. Go and be a problem for a different manager for a while.”
“You arrived not entirely sure you could do this job and are leaving as the person others come to first. I had very little to do with that, but I did get to watch. Good luck out there.”
“Sorry to be losing you and pleased about where you are going, in that order. Keep in touch, and use me as a reference whenever you need one.”
“Thank you for the contribution you have made during your time with the team. You leave your work in good order and your colleagues better informed than you found them, which is not always the case.”
“You outgrew this role about six months before a bigger one appeared elsewhere, and I would rather you went and did it than waited politely. Congratulations, and thank you for the notice period.”
“Your handover document is longer than most of our policies and considerably better written. Thank you for that, and for everything that made it necessary. Go and be excellent somewhere else.”
