I’ve been thinking a lot about how you leave an organisation lately. Probably because I’ll be leaving mine soon.

Art of Saying Goodbye: The 4 Farewells of Leaving Your Job

Some strut out of the front door with a bouquet and a big smile. Some fling the door open, breathe a big sigh of relief and never look back. Some choose to slink out of the back door, hoping that no-one notices. And some are walked around the lake, never to be seen again.
