"Please join me in welcoming . . ." I get these e-mails with some regularity and they are often for high level employees.
I asked some one, "From your experience, they don’t really want us to “welcome” these top level people do they? I’m guessing it’s just a happy phrase not requiring a response. ?"
My wise coworker replied with, "Yep – just a happy phrase. I think it also implies supporting that person in their role."
I’m always so tempted to actually send an e-mail welcoming the person when they say, “Please join me in welcoming . . ." Now, when they ask us to welcome the new CEO and support him in his new role. . . Well, I have some thoughts/suggestions!
I should swing by for lunch.
