This Boss’s Day, celebrate the leaders in your life with these unique Boss’s Day gifts from their favorite employee (you, obviously)
There’s nothing like a supportive boss, especially when you’re a parent. It’s hard to find the words to express how much we appreciate our manager’s guidance, flexibility, leadership, and generally making our workdays fulfilling. We also know being an effective leader isn’t easy, and Boss’s Day is the perfect time to show them what they mean to us.
Boss’s Day is October 16th, but since it falls on a Sunday this year, will be observed Monday the 17th. We’ve combed some of our favorite websites for the best unique Boss’s Day gifts that’ll remind them that their hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed.
