A professional communication used upon leaving a job, typically sent to colleagues. It expresses gratitude, shares contact information, and may briefly mention future plans. Examples include notes of appreciation for specific collaborations, well wishes for the team’s future success, and personal email addresses or LinkedIn profiles for continued connection.
Sending such a message fosters positive professional relationships, maintains valuable connections for future opportunities, and leaves a lasting positive impression. Historically, these communications were less common, often conveyed verbally or through office memos. However, with the rise of email, formalized digital messages became standard practice in workplace transitions.
