Finding the right Christmas gifts for employees can sometimes feel like navigating a snowstorm. You want to show your appreciation, but let’s be honest — choosing something that hits the mark for everyone is no easy feat. And let’s not even start on the chaos of running to multiple stores, hand-writing dozens of cards and the inevitable “I forgot someone!” moments.
Here’s the scoop on why this can be a holiday headache:
- Show that you really care: Digital gifts and cards may seem an easy Christmas gift idea, but let’s face it, the joy of receiving a digital card or gift from your boss isn’t that amazing. We want all the feels!
- Time crunch: The holiday season is busy enough without adding the extra stress of picking gifts and avoiding offending your team.
- Personalisation perils: Finding a one-size-fits-all gift can be a challenge, as is knowing what each of your employees really likes. What’s perfect for one person might outright offend another.
- Administrative mayhem: Handwriting hundreds of cards, labelling presents and managing postage can lead to slip-ups and a whole lot of stress.
