Help keep your boss organized.
If you have a good rapport with your boss and you are looking for a gift to give her for an upcoming event, consider giving an organizational item. These gifts are not only practical, as they will help keep her work life in order, but they are also appropriate for an employee-employer relationship.
Planner
Help your boss keep track of appointments and other important events with a planner. Planners can range from small to large, can be leather or canvas, and can even be personalized with your boss's name or initials. This organizational gift is ideal for bosses in all fields of work -- those who work in an office and those who don't -- as they can easily be transported and help to keep her work life in order.
Desk Organizer
If your boss works at a desk and you notice that it often becomes cluttered, consider giving him a desk organizer. Choose an organizer that will neatly hold all of the essential items on his desk -- pens, paper, notes, business cards, paper clips and other work-related items. Instead of purchasing a plastic organizer, opt for one that is made of wood or bound in leather for a more professional, upscale look.
Briefcase
A briefcase is an organizing option for a boss who travels or who transports business-related items from work to other locations. Briefcases can hold paperwork, files, pens and even laptops. Choose one with a shoulder strap or a handle that is made of a sturdy material, such as leather or canvas. Add personalization to the gift by having your boss's initials monogrammed onto the briefcase.
Shelves
Give your boss decorative shelves. Purchase floating shelves or a piece of furniture that features shelves that she can set up in her office. This gift will allow her to store files, books and other work-related items, as well as personal items, such as photos and awards. Not only will this gift help her organize her office, it will also add a decorative element to the space.
