Retirement Gift Ideas For Executives
For those top people in business, who have probably known the finer things in life, personalization is the key for the perfect retirement gift. It must be something that lets them remember their time in the company, where they had slaved for decades to get to the desk of their dreams.
The gift must be something related to their previous business interests, and which, after their life-time of successful deals and spot-on investments, reminds them of those business-related activities that made them happy and therefore makes them feel happy again. These two things are basic and necessary to help the former executive remember how they lived their working lives, and of course, the one who thoughtfully gave the present.
For The Keen Golfer: Nothing says elitism and enthusiasm more than the sport of golf. The number of shops selling golf clubs, gloves, golf-carts and the like has rocketed over the years due to the rise in industries like hedge fund investing and financial advisors in general. A rising number of business people just results in more golfers since golf is the sport where lots of them go to bond and become acquainted. More evidence of this, is that golf courses are becoming more popular in rising countries like India and China, where ‘Mission Hills’ and many other courses are frequently advertised in the sporting press.
It only takes some creative thought. You could put their company logo, family seal or monogram on golf balls, markers, tees and golf bag to show that certain form of privilege that they relish. For those who like to take friends to the golf course with them, nothing says group bonding more than personalized golf shirts for the whole group of friends!
If they have played particularly well in a memorable golf tournament, a miniature personalized scorecard print will also provoke memories just as much as photos do. With their podium photos and ranks immortalized for ever, you can recreate the joi-de-vivre of the golf tournament and help the golfer (and other participants) to relive the moment just as if they were replaying and enjoying the game again.
Recreational Gambling: A lot of executive figures like to spend some of their spare time in casinos, where they flaunt their wealth and attempt to win more too. Such people live life in the fast lane, so to speak, winning and losing lots of money as spend their free time. The ideal present for this type of person, are items that represent his/her lifestyle, like a personally blended cigar or a monogrammed cigar case and cutter. How about a personalized deck of cards with the logo that represents the retiree’s former trade or industry?
You could also go in for the classic gift of expensive wine or champagne, the taste of which will remind them of the high life by its incomparable taste. A bottle of Lafite, Brut or Mensil are in this bracket. Giving ex top-flight executives these universal symbols of privilege would contribute vastly to the ideal retirement party for them. A cigar case personalized with a monogram and expensive wine do go a long way in this direction.
In Conclusion: Nothing else will remind them of their previous lifestyles more than personalized things that represent their previous way of life. Giving these kinds of gifts to retiring executives hits the nail right on the head. They should be able to live their golden years the way they want to and thinking along the lines of luxury and personalization will help you discover the best retirement gift for them easily.
