How do I tell my boss I'm leaving? (nicely)?

If it were me this is what I would probably do: Start by making sure that the choice of leaving is the right one for me at that exact moment. Relax, take a deep breath and smile, talk to him about the positive sides of working there - the experience and knowledge I gained while working in that company, the people I worked with, the birthday parties etc. - and say I feel it's time for a change in my career. If the reason for my leaving is not quite a positive one and I'm unhappy at your workplace, unless there's the case of abuse or harassment of any sort, again I'd start with the positive side, followed by what makes me unhappy, but without getting angry or losing my temper and keep the conversation withing the business boundaries.

In my opinion, what I would say depends on why I'm leaving. I might share that I've found another position that is closer to home or offers more benefits and salary. While I've enjoyed working here, I really need this other position. Maybe I'm upset with the position I'm in. I have a couple options - talk it out to see if the problems can be addressed, but sometimes that isn't possible. To be respectful I might be very general in my resignation. I always write a resignation out so I can show what was said. Perhaps write that I've been offered another position and it's in my best interest to take it. Two weeks today will be my last day. Thank you There are so many reasons for leaving - moving, personal issues, medical issues, etc. These are just some thoughts.

Be honest with them! Treat them with respect and clearly explain your reasoning. All anyone truly wants is to be respected and to be spoken to like they're an adult. Frame your feelings clearly, couch them in honest, direct language, and leave emotionally hang-ups at the door. Your supervisor likely likes to think of him or herself as a professional, so treating them like one will make things go much easier.

You might want to sit down, have a little friendly chat and then come to the point of why you wanted to have this conversation, letting him clearly know you used this way to tell him something important. You can be truthful about it, you don't need to have any ego. Let him then know what is in your mind. Be as polite as possible and bring in your personality to this! You don't have to show your working side anymore!

Request a 1 on 1 meeting with your boss. Then tell him/her that you appreciate how you've learned and grown under his/her direction. Say that you are sorry, but for 'XXX' reason, you need to leave the company. Finish by saying that you are very grateful for the experience working for him/her has given you and that you hope he/she will recommend you in your future employment endeavors.

Leaving, as in quitting? Well, very nicely would be to write a letter of resignation (usually a 2 week notice) and hand it to him. Just tell him that you are resigning because _____ and ______ and it was a pleasure to work with him and the company for the time you were there.

Just be as normal by sharing the real reason behind you going for an external option.You might want to avoid saying that this company is not a good option fr you though.Avoid hurting his ego

My own experience was to tell my boss the reason I was leaving. She was angry at first but promised to hear me out nonetheless: it was then easier for her to let me go knowing I had this all figured out.
