a Resignation
August 6th, 2010  |  Published in
Sometimes, resignation letters are difficult to accept – especially when the employee who submitting the resignation is a valued employee. Behind every resignation is a good reason. So keep in mind to always accept a resignation with a positive attitude. It has to be real and genuine, for he/she will easily feel if you are not being honest. Be compassionate and considerate of their feelings as well. There are several reasons why an employee decides to file for a resignation. Some of the possible reasons are:
Your employee desires for an increase in salary. This may just be an indication that he’s salary does not suffice him anymore.
He is attempting to win a promotion or at least an improvement in his status as an employee.
He could be stressed. It may be stress from work, or may also be from other aspects of the employee’s private life.
He is dealing with some health issues. He thinks that he will not be as productive as he was if he continued his job.
Whatever the reason, receive and accept the resignation graciously. It is advisable to send your letter through post mail. Better yet, give it to the employee personally. But remember that the human resources department should approve your letter first. Below is an example of a letter on how to accept a resignation.

Acceptance Letter to an Invitation
June 11th, 2010  |  Published in Acceptance Letter
Acceptance letter for an invitation to an event is an expression of your willingness and availability to attend the event. Its purpose is to acknowledge the receipt of the invitation letter and to let the host know that you can participate on the event.
In accepting invitation for any event, it is important to make a timely and brief response. You have to consider the three important parts of the body of the letter which should not be eliminated in writing.
The first part should state an expression of your appreciation to receive an invite. Use positive tones to show your pleasure and honor upon receiving the invitation. The second part of the letter should express the brief details of the event.
This is your way of reiterating the important details such as the place and date of the occasion. Finally, you have to confirm your coming and say a little expectation about the event.
When the invitation is personal in nature, the formality required by letters may be dispensed with. However, if the invitation for an event is formal, there must be strict adherence to the body of a letter.
