PR discussions: Re: [prpoint] Dignity in resignation

Dear Friends

VJ sir is right in this issue. When i left a PR agency with due notice, the agency did not give me work expereince certificate or releiving order. Even iN IT companies i have seen people putting in their papers after they receive salaries or else at times salaries are put on hold citing various reasons.

but yes, if the boss has good understanding with his colleagues, employee will definately inform and move.

best regards

Narren

Hello,

If the employer relieves an employee gracefully without putting any hurdles then the employee will also reciprocate. The primary responsibility for a responsible behaviour lies with the employer and the culture that prevails in a company.

If I have the confidence that my employer would allow me to go peacefully then I will inform other members about servicing the accounts that I handle and other things.

Then the parting will be like a family member going away to a different city after giving necessary instructions, information etc.

On the other hand if an employer cites the rule book, puts hurdles, retains amount due to an employee (all these are common) or even try to scuttle his opportunity in the other company then the employer does not deserve any sympathy.

It should be noted that people leave their bosses and not the company.

It will be interesting to know how many of the corp.comm.managers hire a PR agency that employed him/her earlier as the company's PR agency.

Regards

Jagannathan

Dignity in resignation

Of late I have come across some cases of PR professionals kicking the jobs with the least sense of responsibility, leave aside the basic courtesy of maintaining communication with their own teams.

We are in the business of communication and our immediate colleagues ought to know about our moves since they look upon to the leaders for guidance.

Then, we also owe it to our clients to inform them of our moves, particularly when we work in agencies or consultancies.
I would not like to take any names here since my aim is not to do mudslinging.
But, my questions to the forum are:

Is it right to quit a PR job in a mighty hurry, without even properly handing over the charge?

Does it not cause dent to our image if we indulge in such an irresponsible behaviour?

I sincerely invite members to share their opinions.
