1 Personal Note

A handwritten note can have a profound impact in an age dominated by digital communication. Taking the time to pen a personal message conveys sincerity and thoughtfulness. Your note should be specific about what you are thankful for, whether it's for advice, an opportunity, or support. Remember to keep it professional yet warm, and ensure that your handwriting is legible. A personal note stands out in the recipient's memory, making them feel valued and appreciated.

Your words, straight from the heart can have a healing impact on the readers, particularly your professional connections. Compared to the digital format, your handwriting will have more connect with the reader, he/she will feel special, this way, and will surely remember you for a longer time.

2 Verbal Thanks

Sometimes, a simple face-to-face thank you is the most direct and impactful way to show gratitude. Arrange a brief meeting or catch your connection for a moment to express your thanks in person. Be genuine and specific about what their support has meant to you. If meeting in person isn't possible due to distance or schedules, a phone call can be just as effective. Voice your appreciation clearly and avoid multitasking during the call to show that you are fully present in the moment.

3 Public Praise

Public recognition is a powerful way to express gratitude, especially when it acknowledges contributions in front of peers and superiors. Consider giving a shout-out during a meeting, mentioning their help in a company newsletter, or posting a recommendation on a professional networking platform. Public praise not only shows your gratitude but also helps bolster the reputation of your connection within the professional community.

Public praise works very well in my opinion. If you can give a shout out to them in a meeting or in an email, specifically highlighting the contribution they made or the exceptional trait they displayed, it goes a long way.

4 Thoughtful Gift

A carefully chosen gift can be a tangible token of your appreciation. It doesn't have to be expensive; rather, it should be thoughtful and relevant to the individual's interests or needs. For instance, a book on a subject they're passionate about or a gift card to their favorite coffee shop can be meaningful. Always accompany the gift with a note explaining why you thought of them, which personalizes the gesture further.

Remembering a few older moments and thinking about the gifts that can leave a long-lasting impression on someone's mind, can be a good memory. Some instances and gifts can be so emotional for the receiver that they will always take care of the gift or will always preserve them, as much as they can, and will always appreciate the thoughtfulness for sure.

5 Mentorship Offer

Offering your expertise or time as a mentor is a significant way to give back to those who have supported your career. It's an expression of gratitude that also demonstrates your willingness to invest in the professional growth of others. When you offer mentorship, be clear about what you can provide, whether it's guidance on career development, skill enhancement, or networking opportunities. This reciprocal exchange can strengthen your professional relationships and create lasting bonds.

6 Return the Favor

Look for opportunities to support your connection's goals and projects. This could mean providing an endorsement, sharing their work with your network, or assisting them with a project. By actively looking for ways to contribute to their success, you demonstrate that your relationship is not one-sided and that you value their professional journey as much as they have valued yours.

Today only, I felt so wonderful when a connection DM'd me saying that "how may I help you?", just because I have supported him on his posts on different LinkedIn groups. It was awesome to see that warm message, that my efforts were noticed, and he showed respect to the time, I put in, for showing that support. Such moments and gestures, from the genuine connections, are truly there to cherish. Thus, we should also, keep in mind and return favor time to time.
