Sara delavergne headshot 2022Tis the season! You may send holiday messages to your parents, siblings, and neighbors, but what about your coworkers? Should you send a holiday card to your boss? And if you do, what should it say?

Concern and uncertainty surrounding personal messages in a professional environment are normal. How should you word your message? How much detail should it have? Are there faux pas surrounding particular holidays you may celebrate but your colleagues don’t? Should you get cards for everyone if you get a card for one person?

These are all fair questions.

Generally, holiday greetings and well wishes are considerate and can provide a moral boost while establishing or deepening relationships in the workplace. It’s worth taking the extra time to get personal with your holiday messages to colleagues and bosses during this magical season.

Inclusivity and the Holidays 

It should be noted that you can, and should, tailor each holiday message to a specific colleague or manager so that they don’t feel left out or offended if they celebrate Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, or other winter holidays. Avoid sending holiday greetings that exclusively exclaim “Merry Christmas!”—not everyone celebrates Christmas, and it’s important to acknowledge that so that everyone feels included and respected.
