How To Quit Your Job With Grace

 

Most of us have been there, whether you've been with your company for 2 months, 2 years or 20 years... You have realised it's time to move on, secured another role or have decided to take a break.

It's easy these days to ask Chat GTP to write you an exit letter and send it via email to the relevant parties.

But the question is, how should you act following this in order to exit the business in the best possible way?

• Make yourself available to anybody within the business for a call or meeting to discuss your departure
• Prepare a full handover document to account for the work you have done so far and upcoming projects
• Ensure the company has full access to all working documents and has all your work relevant passwords
• Give the business the option to retain you for your entire notice period, or negotiate this down with all parties agreeing
• Continue to give your very best work until your final day
• Remain positive amongst your colleagues within the business

Not only are you ensuring that the business has the best chance of success following your departure, but you are also protecting your reputation - something that can follow you for your entire career.
