How to Quit Your Job Without ruining your future jobs

Articulating The Goodbye Do: Briefly explain your reason for leaving. ▫simply saying that you've accepted another offer that you hope will further your career. Don't: Offer too much detail. ▫Your manager may misinterpret it or use it to try to persuade you to stay.

Mastering The Countdown Do: Provide as much notice as possible and as is required. ▫Two weeks is standard Do: Maintain your enthusiasm and work ethic. Don't: Fake your way through the time that's left. ▫you want strong recommendations, keep up the same pace

Handling the Counter Offer Be prepared for a counter offer, and if uninterested, turn it down graciously. ▫Say that you appreciate the offer but feel the other position is in line with your career goals. Don't: Insult the employer by tossing out a line like "it's too little too late" or "it's not about the money.”

Refining The Tone Do: In speaking with managers, colleagues and subordinates, always focus on the positive experiences you've had with the company. Don't: Burn bridges by being overly negative, lying or taunting colleagues with news of your next position.

Training The Replacement Do: Agree to help hire or train someone for the position in your remaining time on the job. ▫It's ultimately to your benefit  Less likely that you'll be contacted after you've left. Don't: Rewrite the training manual or give too much of your time over to it.

Fielding Questions Do: answer a few questions that arise after you've gone. ▫two s or phone calls would be standard, and it's courteous to respond as best you can. Don't: Give away too much of your time. ▫If questions continue, begin by slowing your response time and consider offering your services as a consultant.

Informing Clients Do: Seek the guidance of a manager on how to inform clients of the transition. ▫will approve phrasing. Don't: Disregard contract clauses that bar you from taking clients or proprietary information with you.

Remembering The Details Do: Pay attention to details ▫like and phone messages.  Where will they be directed after you've left? ▫Carefully organize all hard and soft files so that important documents will be easy to find. Don't: Leave your physical space in a mess.

Writing The Transition Document Do: Organize and write down the status of all projects and responsibilities that you are accountable for, including the appropriate contacts on each. Don't: Verbally give a manager the rundown.

Wrapping Up Relationships Do: Answer all questions and offer feedback to subordinates ▫remember to acknowledge those you worked with before leaving. Don't: Run out on subordinates without making sure you've left them in a position to succeed or follow up with you.
