Day of the head. How and when do we celebrate?

In the world there is a great variety of professions, where a variety of skills are used. Of course, they are all important and necessary, as they say in the famous proverb. But many people, regularly celebrating, say, the Day of a builder or a chemist, a scientist or a teacher, forget about such a professional holiday as the Day of the Head. Yes, it is not necessary to be surprised: the ability to be a good boss is one of the most important in any team!

Bosses Day

This date is celebrated all over the world every year, on October 16. The day of the leader is a holiday for the heads of all levels: from the lowest level to the president. It's so difficult - to manage people so that they feel comfortable enough, but at the same time perform the necessary procedures and instructions.

History of celebration

Historically, the idea of holding such events belongs to the Americans. The desire and the need to celebrate the Day of a leader of any level appeared in the middle of the last century. According to legend, the US resident Patricia Haroski in 1958 registered "Bossov day" in the Chamber of Commerce. And in 1962, the celebration took on a national scale (Illinois State). The celebration date is also chosen not by chance. October 16 is the birthday of Patricia's father, from whom she worked as a secretary. Since that time and to our days, the Leader's Day has spread throughout the world, and it is actively celebrated in Europe, the United States, Australia and Africa. In recent years, the celebration of the Day of the leader has been paying close attention to Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus.

Congratulations on the day of the head

As has already been said, in Russia it has been accepted to celebrate this date almost on every small business, let alone large enterprises. What is to be done on this day? Usually subordinate employees agree in advance on how the honoring of their superiors will take place. The initiative group draws up the plan of the event, collects money (the participants take off for a gift and holding a banquet or a corporate party, if it is accepted). In small enterprises, "tables are folded" - each brings home a prepared salad, for example, or another dish. If the company is solid, then a banquet is held on this occasion in the restaurant or cafe hall. If it is not customary at the firm to celebrate in this way, then simply the money for a gift to the head on the Day of the Head is collected. Poems and flowers - are attached.

What to gift

Many employees are faced with the problem: what to give the boss on this day? To do this, of course, you should first study his preferences and habits. A good option is a hobby of the boss, if you know what he likes in his spare time: fishing and hunting, snorkeling or skiing, for example. But you need to be careful: there is a chance to give a person what he already has. So you must ask beforehand. Difficulties arise, as a rule, with new bosses, recently appointed to the post of leadership. After all, no one really knows what a person lives by. Then a good way out of this situation will be a business gift: an expensive representative set-organizer, electronic gadgets, know-how, helping in business, and similar things. If your boss has a good sense of humor, you can give a cool gift (the main thing here is not to overdo it). The best at all times is a gift made by own hands: a picture, a composition, an expensive hand-made article, a souvenir. And, of course, flowers (especially if the female boss) and praises in verse and prose, decorated as letters, passports, presentations or wall newspapers.

Congratulations on your birthday to the head

If the boss has a birthday, you can not do without a standing and memorable gift! Usually, the money collected from all employees, without exception, an initiative group or a specially selected person. It is better to collect money in advance and with a margin, so that there is time for selection and purchase. Again, the problem arises: what to give? Best of all, if your boss has long occupied the appropriate position, and you managed to communicate with him enough and to know his range of interests and preferences. Then the optimal options will be the present from the category of "hobby" or "business class". Congratulations on his birthday to the head are made in verse. For this, there is always a home-grown poet in a large collective. In extreme cases, you can dig on the Internet, but just do not choose too jaded: it looks vulgar and vulgar. It is better to take something original and unpretentious than a too florid congratulation in a poetic form. It is obligatory to write a name and a patronymic to make the message look personal. Do not forget about the flowers: a good middle-aged boss will suit, for example, a chic bouquet of roses as a symbol of love and gratitude. A man-leader - carnations or lilies of a white hue.
