Leaving the team,
I want to say to you: “Thank you
For support, for participation -
There was a lot of happiness with you,
I had a lot of arguments with you
And serious conversations.
I will remember with sadness
Our team and... miss you!”

I'm leaving the team
I will say, colleagues, thank you
For help, for support,
For correcting errors.

I will miss you so much
I will remember your cordiality,
About what kind of team you are
I won’t forget it in the new place.

What can I tell you, colleagues?
What do you want before you leave?
Request more privileges
And get a higher salary.
Don't burn out at work like candles,
Have time to enjoy life,
Instead of waiting for evening to come,
To crawl quickly into bed!

Last day at work today
And I'm a little sad about that.
Thank you colleagues for your concern,
I wish you all the best.
I will remember you with warmth.
You were like family to me.
I'm leaving, but I'm taking it with me
All the best. Goodbye friends!

Farewell words to colleagues when leaving work in prose

Dear Colleagues! We have walked many productive years and wonderful days together along the high road of our common cause! There was everything: shortcomings and omissions, victories and defeats, grievances and joys. But the most important thing was your tact, respect for my mistakes, which we corrected by uniting into a friendly team of allies. Your lessons will not be in vain! I promise you this for sure!

Dear colleagues, it's time to say goodbye. I'm happy and sad. Ahead new job, impressions and experience. Here I leave a piece of my soul. Thank you for everything: for being there in difficult moments, helping, supporting in word and deed. I wish you to remain the same friendly team, close-knit team and good friends. I will always remember our collaboration with warmth.

Colleagues, we spent a lot of time together, and our relationship became almost family. And although changing jobs is so natural, for some reason a bitter feeling of loss appeared in my soul. Of course, we will continue to communicate, but everything will be different. Thank you for the cozy and cheerful atmosphere that brightened up your everyday life, helped you cope with problems and blues, and inspired you to work and grow!

Dear colleagues, today is an exciting day for me, I’m leaving you. And I'm a little sad about parting with you. Your friendly team has given me a lot. Your patience and partner support helped me get back on my feet. I express my deep gratitude to everyone and take with me the most pleasant memories. I wish your team further prosperity and well-being to each of you!

Words of gratitude to colleagues upon dismissal - cool poems

I lived in a collective for a long time -
I'm leaving on a positive note!
If there are arms and legs -
That means there will be something to eat!
Yes, and I saved money,
I spent a lot of energy here,
So tired that I have no urine,
I'm leaving! Hello to all of you!

I'm leaving you guys
Farewell, beloved team,
We have survived more than one test
And not just one corporate event.

I was always saved cleverly
From claims “on the carpet”.
Thank you for everything, colleagues,
You have become dear to me.

Well, colleagues, you still have to work hard,
Work tirelessly here
Humping and puffing for days on end,
Without noticing anything around.
And now I'm facing all the winds
I'm flying to freedom like a fired arrow -
Now I manage myself,
A hero ready for adventure!

Today everyone is in a good mood, -
It's my last day of work.
Everyone is waiting with joyful excitement,
When will I leave everyone alone?
And I feel sad from the general joy.
I hope that then people will understand
That I was kind to them after all,
When someone else comes to replace me.

Gratitude to colleagues from a resigning employee - comic prose

Glorious representatives of my now former team! I'm quitting tomorrow! Do you think: I'm worried? Not at all...Happy as a new nickel! Can you imagine - freedom awaits your colleague! And also laziness, sleep and TV! Hooray!

Today I say goodbye to you, my dear colleagues. I want to thank you for the kind jokes, the hundreds of cups of coffee we drank together, the fun “smoke breaks”, useful tips and “compromising evidence” in the form of photos and videos from our joint holidays. I wish you to stay happily, remember me only with a smile, do not hold grudges or grudges. I love, respect and will miss you all very much.

Colleagues, working with you was easy and pleasant - I am one hundred percent satisfied! But, as you know, fish look for where they feed, and people look for where they pay more, and from a human perspective you can understand my departure. It’s not easy for me to part with you, but what’s stopping us from communicating on Viber, corresponding on social networks, liking each other? In general, the effect is complete presence, so no global changes are planned.

I see, dear colleagues, with what impatience you are awaiting my departure. Be patient a little. Yes, I was a thorn in the team that did not give anyone peace. But I think you'll miss me. Who will now tell you jokes, borrow rubles until payday, shoot cigarettes and play the first of April? In the meantime, goodbye, colleagues, miss you, call me. Thank you for everything, don't worry about it.

Regardless of the challenges you're facing in your workplace, when you decide to quit, it can be difficult to say goodbye to your co-workers. Try extracting maximum benefit, making your breakup cordial and inclusive. You may need to contact some of your former colleagues in the future, so say goodbye to them with tact and grace. Whether you say goodbye in person or via email, it shouldn't be stressful for you.

Steps

Personal farewell

Give notice of your departure in advance. This should not be done on your last day at work, as many may find it rude or indecent. Try to make sure that all your colleagues know about your departure before you no longer appear in the office.

• In most cases, you must submit your notice of resignation 2 weeks in advance (unless a different deadline is specified in your contract).
• After submitting your application, you can inform your colleagues about your resignation. Announce this when appropriate, but be sure to announce it in advance and not on your last day of work.

1. Say goodbye the day before last day work. Say goodbye on the second to last day to give your colleagues some time to process the fact that you are leaving. Time before your departure day will also give you a chance to finish all your projects without a stream of colleagues wanting to say goodbye to you.

   • After you've announced that you're leaving, chances are your coworkers will stop by from time to time to say goodbye. Because of this, saying goodbye can be made easier if you have completed all your tasks.

2. Meet with people one on one. Pack your belongings early so you have time to say goodbye to your co-workers individually. This may make you feel like your work together is over because it will be the last time you meet as colleagues.

   Keep it brief. Say goodbye to your colleagues like a professional. There is no need to make a long speech. Tell your colleagues that you enjoyed working with them, that you wish them well, and that you will be in touch with them.

   • If your colleague is leaving, do not take too much time from him to say goodbye, as other colleagues may also come to say goodbye to him. Even if you are upset that this particular employee is leaving, keep your emotions to yourself.
   • Just tell him: “Mark! It was a pleasure working with you. You good man. Let me know how you are doing, okay?”

3. Maintain a positive attitude. If you've been suspended or fired, you may find it difficult not to lose your cool while saying goodbye to your co-workers. However, you should try to remain calm in order to present yourself in the most professional light. Even if you are upset, remain calm and brief.

   Invite your close colleagues to a farewell meeting after work. Most likely, among your colleagues you have friends, enemies and people to whom you are indifferent, so you should not invite everyone.

   • Invite only your closest colleagues who have become your friends to your farewell meeting after work. This meeting will allow you to talk more openly with them and establish stronger connections for the future.

Sending a goodbye email

1. Make your corporate letter comprehensive. If you're saying goodbye to colleagues in a department or company and you can't say goodbye to each of them, kindly thank them. You should include people you don't know personally, as this is the right thing to do corporate ethics. The letter might include something like:

   • Dear Colleagues! As you may have heard, I will be leaving my position at (insert your position) tomorrow. I want to say that it was a pleasure working with all of you. I'd like to stay in touch; you can reach me at (your email) or (your LinkedIn profile). Thank you for the time we worked together. Best regards, (your name).

2. Keep a positive tone. You could write about the difficulties associated with your job (especially if you were fired). However, it is better to maintain a positive tone in order to present yourself in better light. Having a positive attitude will make it more likely that you will communicate with colleagues in the future.

   • It's always a good idea to end on a positive note, so try to speak positively about the company (as much as possible). This is especially important if you are sending a letter to your manager.

3. Write a short and to the point letter. There is no need to reveal the real reason for your leaving. If your colleagues have questions, ask them to contact you directly. In the letter, simply indicate that you are moving forward and have decided to try yourself in a different position.

4. Please provide your contact details. Your farewell letter should end with your contact information. Please indicate your number clearly mobile phone, email address and Linkedin account address. However, do not share your personal contact information if you are not comfortable doing so.

   • You can also select several colleagues with whom you will share your personal contact information.

5. Read the letter before sending to make sure there are no errors, that it is grammatically correct, and that the tone of the letter is friendly and positive.

   • Make sure you include everything you wanted in your email.
   • You can read your email out loud to identify unpleasant (or awkward or ugly) moments.

6. Talk personally with colleagues close to you. It's generally rude to tell your friends you're leaving via email. Try to say goodbye to them in person or at least over the phone.

   • If you can't meet close colleagues in person, send them personalized letters. Provide them with personal contact information so you can stay in touch outside of the office.
   • A personal email might include something like: “Dear (coworker's name), As you may have heard, I'm leaving this company tomorrow. It was a pleasure working with you and I will miss your positive energy. I'd like to stay in touch and I hope we can meet outside of the office. You can contact me by my phone (number) or by (your email). Thank you for the time we worked together. Sincerely, (your name)."

How to avoid common mistakes

1. Don't make false promises. If you have no intention or desire to stay in touch with a certain colleague, do not make false promises about future meetings. You will be considered insincere and deceitful. Be upfront and honest - if you don't want to communicate with someone after you leave, don't do it or promise it (remember, no one is forcing you to do it!).

   • If you think your intentions to connect with some colleagues will offend others, keep your plans to yourself. It is not necessary to spread the word on every corner that you will communicate with certain employees even after you leave.

If you were fired during a crisis,
Time to test yourself!
If you give up, you will lose everything!
Luck will forget you!
If you can handle it, then you are the best.
There will be something to tell everyone.
Maybe later memoirs,
You will write about this!

Poem wishes to colleagues from someone resigning

Well, guys, I'm leaving,
I take dismissal calmly!
But I sincerely feel sorry for our team,
After all, I’ve gotten used to it over the years!
Work successfully and, of course, amicably,
Call if you need anything,
And don’t forget about me,
And, if you want, visit!

I will always find a word for everyone!
And I’ll treat you to tea, or maybe something stronger,
And we will all live - great!

Instructions

In the West, it has recently become fashionable to write farewell letters to colleagues when leaving a job. They can be sent either as a mass mailing to the entire team, or by writing individual letters to the employees who have become closest to you. It is best to start such a letter with an address (friends, respected colleagues, etc.), thank them for their cooperation, remember joint projects (this way you can further associate your colleagues with their work done, and their successes will be subconsciously reflected in your thoughts Same). It is advisable to wish your colleagues and employer success and prosperity and be sure to leave your new contacts - anything happens in life and old connections may come in handy. Also, if you work in a large company and not everyone knows you, in the letter you can announce the date on which you will no longer be at work and indicate the employee who will perform your duties after your departure.

After the farewell letter, you can throw a party, but whether it will be modest gatherings with tea and cake at lunchtime or a large-scale party in a cafe is up to you, it all depends on your relationship with colleagues and on your financial situation. Alternative option– arrange a small tea party after work, invite all your colleagues and, of course, your manager. At the same time, you can thank everyone present for the experience that you gained while working with them and give them a small souvenir (magnet/calendar with a common photo of all employees from some corporate event). And on the weekend, invite your closest colleagues to a restaurant or bar, where you can have fun, remembering your work together, you can discuss your first working day in this organization - this will definitely make you smile with nostalgia.

There are options for saying goodbye to colleagues for more original individuals. True, they will incur considerable costs, but your care will definitely be remembered former colleagues. You can invite employees to a wine or whiskey tasting - with elite types of alcohol, the toasts will definitely be more refined and memorable. Invite your colleagues to play paintball - it’s fun, active and useful. You can invite there a large number of people and don't worry about farewell speech– paint balls will replace all words. Other options for a farewell evening with colleagues: jazz dinner (sophisticated, bright and elegant); going to bowling (banal, but always relevant and fun); farewell photo session with colleagues (this will definitely remain a memory for a lifetime).

Each employee of a large or small company, over the years of work, acquires connections in the team, becomes a useful and sometimes irreplaceable member in a well-coordinated personnel mechanism. All this requires compliance with corporate ethics standards from the company, promotion or when moving to another branch. One of the rules in such cases is to draw up a farewell corporate letter for the team and management.

The tradition of writing farewell letters is widespread in European countries. In large organizations, each employee performs specific functions and interacts with employees from many other departments. In such cases, the letter will allow you to express respect, notify other employees of your departure and transfer business contacts so that there is no downtime in work.

Corporate Farewell letter will be required if an employee leaves the company or department in which he worked for a long period or permanently. An official farewell letter is written in the following cases:

• dismissal from the company
• promotion to a management position
• moving to a branch in another city
• retirement

The longer an employee has worked in a team, the more established connections remain at the old place of work and, of course, simply and quietly leaving in this case is simply impolite. A farewell letter is the best format for saying goodbye and notifying employees that a particular employee is leaving and a new specialist will take his place.

Is it necessary to write such a letter at your workplace?

A farewell letter to colleagues is a formal farewell method and is more designed for large companies with a large number of employees and various departments, where not all employees have the opportunity to meet personally.

In such cases, the letter is published on the corporate blog, posted on an information board or read out at a general meeting, depending on the reason for leaving.

For small offices and companies where no more than 10-20 people work, a farewell letter is not necessary and is used rather as a formality when saying goodbye, remaining as a keepsake for employees. In a small team, you can say goodbye to each employee yourself or throw a farewell party.

In general, it all depends on the preferences and wishes of the retiring employee, the traditions of the team, and the presence or absence of the practice of writing farewell letters.

Reasons for writing the message

Writing a corporate farewell letter has several main goals:

• Express gratitude to colleagues with whom you had the opportunity to work during long term and who rightfully became friends and acquaintances
• Notify employees of other departments that you are leaving your position and are not officially working in the company or are not involved in the affairs of your department by going for a promotion
• Notify the team that after you there is a receiver who can be contacted on work issues
• Leave the coordinates, work phone number and email of the receiver to simplify communication within the team
• Thank management for the opportunity to work in the company and for the experience gained in the chosen profession

A farewell corporate letter can be considered a banal act of politeness, in which the employee thanks everyone and expresses gratitude to the team for the time they worked together. But it's not just about sentimental feelings. In an era of corporate ethics, letters of recommendation and testing an employee's reputation at previous jobs, it is extremely important to leave with a good reputation. That is why it is necessary to show politeness and caution, because companies working in related fields are in contact in one way or another, old connections and good feedback will not interfere with your new job.

Rules for writing farewell letters upon dismissal

The farewell message should be short, succinct and positive.

If you work in a company with several hundred employees, there is no point in writing one long message. Firstly, reading it will take time from people busy with work. Secondly, employees who are unfamiliar with them will not read a long message, even without really knowing the person who wrote it. Therefore, the general letter should contain a number of official theses and gratitude to the team and management.

A longer message can be written for employees in your department or for those with whom you have a warmer relationship. Also in this letter you can show off your eloquence, add a little humor, making the message friendly, not formal. A letter for friends can be sent to the personal mail of those employees you know.

Analysis of a farewell letter point by point

Should I send a goodbye letter to my boss?

Of course, this largely depends on the personal and professional relationships that have developed with management. But following the rules of corporate ethics, it is still necessary to send a letter to your boss.

A letter of gratitude will allow you to create a last positive impression, which can be a plus in the future. You may need letter of recommendation from the manager, or the head of the personnel department of the new company will try to contact the boss from your previous place of work.

Examples of farewell letters

If you are going to write a letter upon dismissal to colleagues, we will look at an example of a possible message below. We suggest you read the letter in a businesslike and friendly style, intended for the head of the company.

It is also worth clarifying that many large companies have approved samples of farewell letters for each specific case. If your company is one of these, then it is worth studying the submitted and approved sample on the corporate blog.
