Gift Ideas for the Business Exec in Your Life

With the holidays just around the corner it isn’t unusual to find yourself scrambling for the perfect gift to present your favorite business executive. Whether this high riding individual is a family member or you want to make a good impression on the boss, knowing where to find unique and stylish gifts can make the process much simpler. Here are 5 ideas which those whou focus on professional development are sure to be welcome.

Anything Monogrammed - It may seem a cliché but personalized gifts are always appropriate as long as they are tasteful. At www.gifts.com you will find a collection of items, from mouse pads to portfolios, and everything in between. All of the items can be customized with a personal monogram. Prices range from about $25 to well over $100.

Leather Cases - At www.executiveessentials.com you can find a remarkably comprehensive collection of laptop cases, briefcases and totes. Many are even TSA approved to make getting through security easier. For the executive who is always on the go a classy and timeless bag is always an acceptable gift. Not all of the bags are masculine in nature either, there is a fine selection of feminine designs as well. Ranging in price from approximately $60 - $500 you are certain to find something your recipient will like.

Writing in Style - Also available at www.executiveessentials.com is a fine selection of writing implements. Everyone loves a good pen, but few people actually invest in them. Mont Blanc is generally recognized as the cream of the crop when it comes to pens, but the price may be prohibitive for some; it isn’t unheard of to pay $200 or more for a basic unit. Other companies also produce high quality pens for less, and might be a more affordable choice.

Gift Certificates - Available through a number of outlets, a gift certificate for a day at the spa, a round of golf or another activity you know your executive enjoys is always an option. This is an ideal selection if you are purchasing a group gift as everyone can put in what they can afford and no one needs to feel slighted. If you are purchasing a gift for the boss it might take a bit of research to find the most appropriate choice.

Gourmet Food - As long as you know that your favorite executive doesn’t have specific food allergies a gift basket of gourmet food items is always a treat. At www.gifttree.com, www.harryanddavid.com or www.igourmet.com you will find baskets of every size and shape. You can spend as little as $10 or over $1000, it just depends upon what you want to give.

Picking out just the right gift for the executive in your life is a great way to make a positive impression.
