Definitely give a phone call to your direct reports. It’s going to be awkward but it’ll be over before you know it. Then follow up with formal email resignation & letting HR know. Congrats on the new gig!
Thanks!
Straightforward is the way to go. The less dithering the better.
What led to your departure?
Depends, do whatever is comfortable first. Keep it short and brief, no need to feel bad.
If you’re already anxious, you can do an email and include an opportunity to chat.
“Hey (name), I just wanted to let you know that my last day is (date). I was offered an opportunity that felt better aligned with my goals. I would love to schedule some time to chat about this before any formal announcement, will (date) work?
Avoid the awkward phone call and set intentions for the call all at the same time.
Schedule a zoom called “catch up” with your boss. Tell them you weren’t looking but got an unsolicited offer and it’s a great opportunity. Thank them for everything and inform them your last day is in 2 weeks.
