Bidding farewell to your employees and or fellow colleagues can be really hard. It is one of those emotional moments in an organization where you have to bid adieu to the colleaques you worked with for many years.
And in between those flowing emotions finding the right choice of words can be challenging. You want your message to be meaningful, but remain composed and professional at the same time. A farewell message will not only make them feel valued but it will also show that the organization held them in high esteem (regard) along with an excellent company culture.
In moments like this we are reminded of the song by “The Manhattans- Kiss and Say Goodbye”. Few verses from the lyrics, I quote:
“This has got to be the saddest day of our lives.
We called here today for a bit of bad news.
We won’t be able to see you anymore (around here).
Because of our obligations, and the ties that we had.
We’ve been meeting here (at Badirile Secondary School) everyday!
And since this is our last day together.
Lets just hug and say good bye!!
We gonna miss you colleagues
Lets just hug, shake hands
And say goodbye”!
