Michael,

Congratulations and all the very best in this new adventure! It sounds like an amazing opportunity, and I'm certain you'll thrive. It was a little sneaky of you to leave during your parental leave, but I think it also helped the team cope with your departure. I hope you still had a wonderful time with Alfie and Ellie. I want to thank you for everything you've done for me. Thanks for always hearing me out, being supportive, and providing valuable advice. I've learned so much from working with you, most importantly how to be more diplomatic and tactful to maintain relationships when things aren't going according to plan. I especially want to thank you for taking the time to help w/ proposal submissions to conferences. These were really meaningful experiences for me, and I truly appreciate your support when you already had a lot on your plate. It is among many examples that demonstrate your commitment to your team. You will be missed, and I hope our paths cross again.

Best,

Abie

Hi Michael,

I wish to use this medium to congratulate you on your new appointment. Your new organization is lucky to have you on board. Though, quite sad that you are leaving the DI-FS, I am hopeful that we will stay in touch from time to time. Thank you sincerely for your immense support, mentorship, guidance, collegiality, calm disposition, and leadership. You were simply awesome! I am surely going to keep in touch so as to continue to tap from your wealth of knowledge. Thank you so much Michael, and all the very best in your new role.

Lots of regards,

Kayode

Congratulations on your career change and best wishes as you transition back to work. It was great to cross paths with you, and hope it happens again. Your departure means one less person to talk hockey with at DI:( Stay in touch. You are highly regarded and will be missed. Sincerely, Brian

Michael, what a pleasure working with you if only a little bit cross-team before your leave. You leave hard shoes to fill and I will do my best to support the team in the way that you did. I want to wish you all the best in your next step. Please visit us at the Paintbox! Magda

Michael,
Congratulations on your new role. Thank you for taking a chance on me and giving me the opportunity to contribute to the DI-FS team's work. Working with you was a great experience and you will certainly be missed. Wishing you best of luck on your new adventure!
Take care,
Erin

I refuse to believe you're leaving us. It was a joke, right? Right???
Thank you for being such a fearless leader, for always staying calm no matter the workload or the 'team drama', for always having an open ear and being receptive to new ideas. Working with you has taught me to take a step back and reflect on what is really important before reacting. I admire you for your fairness, for your leadership style and, specifically, for your way of asking questions to the team instead of giving orders which has helped many colleagues develop new skills and believe in themselves. I mean it 100% when I say you will be sorely, sorely missed. Please stay in touch!

Congratulations on your new role Michael!! It was a pleasure working with you - I appreciate your thoughtfulness, thoroughness, and supportive approach to your team. Your support for and optimism toward establishing consistency in report style and processes were very helpful in my early days at DI, and I'm happy to say that the "DI report style guide" is now (finally!!) been established and has been in use for several reports! I'm sure you have many greater achievements to take with you as you depart DI (although what could be greater than consistency in punctuation?!), but from my little production corner, I thank you for your role in facilitating that project. Sorry that I couldn't make it to your farewell event, but I wish you all the best in the new chapter of your career and hope you find great new colleagues and fulfilling work!
Best,
Courtney

Hi Michael,

Congratulations on the new role! It is really a loss for DI and for the team. I was looking forward to learning more from you, given how great your feedback was on my work (e.g., the eCampusOntario report). Maybe there will be a chance for us to collaborate again in the future; we worked with SCC for the 50-30 challenge.

And I'm sorry that I cannot attend your goodbye party, I will be in Montreal.

Kevin
