Who Will Receive Your Thank You Note?

An immediate line manager

As you probably deal with this person on a regular basis, you might already know the most appropriate tone for your thank you note.

If you have any lingering doubts, it's always worth sounding out a trusted colleague or asking your manager's personal assistant for advice before sending your note.

A More Senior Manager

If the person you are writing to is more senior than your own line manager, here are a few simple do's and don'ts:

• DO tell your line manager that you are sending a note (especially if the recipient is your manager's boss!)


• DO share a copy of the note with your line manager ... this simply courtesy shows you are a truly open team


• DO be concise ... your boss is busy and will appreciate your thank you note all the more if it is brief and to the point.


• DO spellcheck!!!


• DON'T assume the senior manager knows who you are, if you don't normally interact with them and /or you work for a large organisation.


• DON'T be over familiar and address the 'big boss' by his / her given name, if this is not your company practice
