April 27th is Administrative Professional's Day. Here are some tips for choosing a one-of-a-kind gift for your one-of-a-kind employee.

1. Flowers   

Beautiful flowers are a great way to light up a well-deserving employee's day. A hand-delivered bouquet of bright roses is a common idea. If your employee merits something more unique, perhaps wildflowers or orchids are the way to go. Surprising your employee with a bouquet of their favorite color or type of flowers can show them that you know them well.  

Regardless of type, a hand-delivered bouquet is sure to bring joy to your employee and spruce up any office space.

2. A personalized note, card, or message

A personalized note or message is the best way to let your employee know how much you appreciate them. Make sure the message is personal and unique. This lets your employee know that you appreciate the one-of-a-kind person they are and the individual talents they bring to your business.

Most florists offer the opportunity to write a personalized message to be delivered along with your bouquet. To go above and beyond for your employee, purchasing or creating a card especially for them is a worthwhile idea.

3. Consider candies or favorite treats

You can never go wrong with candies. Take the time to get to know your employee's favorites. Just like knowing their favorite flower or personalizing a message for them, surprising them with their favorite chocolates or sweet treats proves you know them as an employee and an individual.

4. Don't stop there

Although Administrative Professional's Day only occurs once a year, it is important to appreciate your employees year-round. An appreciated employee is a happy employee. Even the smallest acts of appreciation go a long way.
