Gifts for an Employer or Boss

A gift for a manager or a boss in Israel — from one person or from the whole team, delivered to the office with a card.

About Gifts for an Employer or Boss

The gift to a boss has a narrow band to hit. Too small and it reads as an afterthought; too large and it reads as something else entirely. What works is a well-made food gift with a card from the team rather than an individual: a chocolate box, a good platter, a cake for a milestone or a retirement.

Sending it to the office rather than the house keeps it in the professional register, and it means the card can be signed by everybody. Choose the delivery date at checkout for a day the office is open, and check the store's kashrut on its page — a gift a manager cannot eat in front of the team is worse than none.

What people usually send

  • A chocolate or gift box signed by the whole team
  • A platter for a manager's milestone or retirement
  • A cake for a work anniversary
  • Flowers or a faux arrangement for the office
