MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Support
41 -
Recently it was suggested to me that the
Agency should attempt to have some formal retirement ceremony
for our retiring employees in order to give due recognition to this
very important milestone in their lives and to impress upon them
our appreciation for the work they have done and our continuing
interest in their activities after they leave. There appears to be
some feeling that just shaking hands with old friends and walking
out the door leaves some of these people with a less-than-warm
feeling toward the Agency.
I should appreciate your giving this matter
some thought and discussing it with appropriate personnel in the
Agency at large. I have no preconceived ideas about what we might
do or whether we need to do anything. However, I do think it is
important that to the extent possible we make our retiring employees
feel that we appreciate their contribution and are interested in the it
welfare and continued loyalty to the Agency. If some ceremony
could contribute to this feeling, perhaps it would be worthwhile.
