Yes, it’s that time of the year again – the week before Christmas.
The toughest challenge on your Christmas list this year isn’t your demanding mother-in-law – the honour falls to your boss and colleagues. How does one find the perfect useful gift that doesn’t only smack of professionalism but comes at a good price point? Well, we can’t work miracles but this guide will help you score brownie points with everyone in the office.
To some, the impending Christmas holiday does not necessarily relate only to indulging in the festive joy. In particular, one may find the process of choosing the right gifts extremely vexing. This ordeal can be especially distressing if your boss is amongst the recipients in your gift list.
Selecting an appropriate gift for the boss can be an extremely delicate affair. An overly exorbitant gift might immediately grant you the “bootlicker” tag by co-workers while an inexpensive gift may come off as insincere.
A poll was conducted by JobsCentral from, 21st November to 2nd December 2011, to find out the general perceptions’ of employees on, how much would be an appropriate amount to spend on a gift for the boss. A total of 222 votes were gathered from the poll.
