Farewell gift idea for a boss.

I wish to gift something to my boss. He is CIO and he is leaving the company. He has been very kind to me. He is bright young chap , gora and a very nice guy.
He helped me out in building my career and did some personal favors too.

We never had any personal contact outside of work though, so we have formal relationship only. I might need to use his reference some day, though not in near future . I have added him to my LinkedIn network already and I will request a recommendation on LinkedIn.

So give me some gift ideas for a gift up to $100.

Awww...he sounds like a nice boss!

How about some cufflinks?? Or a personalised calendar?? (you can get his name integrated into the photographs!)

Re: Farewell gift idea for a boss.

Can you get him a decent digital photoframe in $100? That's a great gift since he can take it to his next office and displays pics of his family or keep it at home.

Good idea. :k: I am on my way to buy that gift and to his farewell party.

Happy to help!

Re: Farewell gift idea for a boss.

If he is a gora/angraiz, then you should give him some Pakistani handmade things... like marble made showpieces.

You can get these things easily in $100
