How do you make a colleague feel valued, especially when they’re leaving

Four tips to utilise a great opportunity to demonstrate the way we value our colleagues
 

1. Use a group card.
   Shared e-cards let the whole team add messages, photos and GIFs in one place. Send the link early so everyone has time to contribute.
    
   
2. Keep it warm but professional.
   Mix a light-hearted memory with genuine thanks, since the card may be forwarded or saved.
    
   
3. Start getting the card together early.
   Make sure you have enough time to chase everyone and maybe sort out a collection or leaving gift without causing yourself untold stress.
    
   
4. Add your personal contact details.
   A digital card makes it easy to include a LinkedIn link or personal email so you stay in touch.
