If your boss is resigning or leaving your department or your company, then you might have thought about having a farewell party for your boss. While most people think that ordering in some food and then gathering everyone around the table during the tea break is enough, you can take this one step further by actually having a proper farewell party for your boss. There are many ways in which you can get this done. Here are some tips that will definitely be useful for you. Ensure that you read till the end of this article and note down anything you might need.
Get Ideas from Everyone
It is also important that you get ideas from everyone at the office. This way it will be easier to organize it and you will not have to worry about anything either. It will not be just you who has poured their brains into the organizing. Furthermore, ideas such as hiring a hassle free Singapore photo booth need to be approved by everyone due to the budget constraints that might be there. Therefore, it is best that you get ideas from everyone and implement them accordingly.
Have a Proper Budget
It is also important that you have a proper budget to cover corporate event. If you feel like your office does not have the necessary money to hire a place to have the party, then you can transform the office into a party venue after work hours. This way you can have a photo booth for the purposes of making the party even more exciting and happening. Therefore, if you feel like you do not need to waste on another location, then you will be able to stick to the budget and have a good time as well.
Hire a Caterer
Instead of getting everyone to bring little pieces of food and drink from home, it might make more sense to hire someone who can cater the event. All of this depends on what kind of party you are having. If you decide to have a full on dinner party, then you might want to look into finger food and such things that will replicate a big dinner and give the same effect. For this purpose, speak to a caterer and hire their services accordingly.
Get a Useful Gift
There is no point in giving your boss a plaque or a mug with everyone's picture in it to take home. While you can most certainly give a picture of the staff, it might make more sense to give a useful present that will be utilized properly wherever it will be taken. Therefore, ensure that you think a lot about this and select something that will actually be utilized quite well as opposed to just being kept on a shelf.
