Managerial Farewell Speech TemplateUse this template for a farewell speech that will be enjoyed by all at the office.It is very important that farewell speeches are kept short, as the purpose of the speech can be served in a very short time. Anything longer than 5 minutes is unnecessary and constitutes a lecture. Lectures are reserved only for ground-breaking ideas that have been well-researched. If you wish to customise this speech then it is best to only substitute words; do not add sentences to lengthen the speech. Get attention (introduction). "I just want to say a few words to express the company's appreciation for the time XYZ has spent with us." Talk about the employee. "XYZ has spent X years with us, and in that time XYZ has distinguished his/herself with her diligence/humour/drive/ABC in the workplace. His/her work in TUV project has resulted in GHI which I hope inspires others in what can be achieved. Of course, s/he will also be remembered for the every day things, such as [insert ONE positive character description here]." Talk about the impact of their leaving. "XYZ's moving on to bigger and brighter things will leave a gaping hole in the organisation. While s/he has put in place some amazing ideas that will stay after s/he leaves, it will be a challenge to fill that hole. Nonetheless, when I look around at the faces in this room, I see other talented people and a great team culture - of which XYZ was a part - and no doubt we will be able to soldier on." Final wish farewell. "So XYZ, I hope you have all the best prosperity and fulfillment in your future endeavours. There is no doubt you'll make a success of future opportunities as you have here. These words and gift are just a small expression of our appreciation for your work and time here. So farewell, and good luck." While saying the last sentence, present the gift, shake their hand and MOVE AWAY, out of the limelight. From this farewell speech page to Fond Farewell home page |
