Forget the pens, silver business card holders or desk pendulums -- give an unusual executive gift. Think outside the box to pick the perfect gift by taking into account the gift receiver's personality, likes outside the office, and the office's overall culture.
Adventure Gifts
-
Giving a gift that will get the executive on your list out of the office could be a winning idea. There are plenty of companies including excite.com and cloud9living.com that offer adventures as gifts. Adventures could include wine tastings, race car driving or even learning how to surf. Each gift is dependent on where you live, and of course, your executive's personality. Consider getting a group adventure gift to take all of your coworkers on, such as a hot air balloon ride.
Grilling Gifts
-
Perhaps the executive you know likes to blow off a little steam during his off hours by firing up the grill. There are plenty of different grilling accessories that would be perfect for him. Many companies are now making different meat thermometers that will read off when the meat that the person is grilling is complete. This allows the griller to have more time chatting with guests and less time tending to the grill.
Beer/Wine of the Month
-
If you have a beer or wine connoisseur on your hands, get her the gift that keeps on giving. Some companies offer monthly beer and wine chosen to go with the season, delivered directly to the gift recipient's door. You only have to make a one-time purchase for a gift that will be delivered once a month for 12 months. It's the perfect, constant "thank you" for a job well done.
