Resigning from your job in a right way from a position takes careful planning and you need to follow the set process. Do not rush without following the process.

Here are some steps to execute your resignation in a correct way.

Step 1: Go through your employment contract and read the notice period clause. Companies have varied notice period starting 2 weeks, 30 days and some companies also have a lengthy notice period upto 90 days. Refer to your contract to learn how much notice is required. If you cannot find this information, ask your HR or immediate manager to know about it. You can always negotiate your notice period, check this out to know more.

Step 2: Learn about the separation process. Firstly have a discussion without your manager and discuss about your moving out plan. This is always a good way to start so that your manager is aware of your resignation beforehand. Once you discuss with your manager, you can submit your resignation notice either through email or through HR portal. Always make sure to involve all the relevant stakeholders informed about your resignation.

Step 3 : Be open for discussion with your team. Regardless of your motivation for leaving your job, communicate your decision to your workplace in a positive way. Don’t say no without listening to recommendations from your manager. Always, keep your options open.

Step 4: Be ready with handover plan. Sometime your manager might come to you at the last minute and ask you for a handover plan. It’s always good to keep your handover document ready and also focus on the knowledge transfer plan. Make sure your communication is always documented and involve all the stakeholders.

Step 5: Wrap it up: Finish your working projects and don’t pile up work during your separation time. This is very important and needs careful planning.

Step 6: Thank everyone: When you are on your way out, thank everyone who helped you on your way up. It will mean a lot to them and will also result in longterm gains. Stay connected after you sign off from your role to ensure if your team needs any support.
