Executives Describe Email Sign-Off Practices at Workplace Summit

Executives at a workplace summit shared the phrases they use to close emails. The responses ranged from standard closings to more personal or minimal sign-offs. No single format was identified as dominant among participants.

Several executives said they use short phrases such as "best" or "thanks." Others reported omitting a sign-off line entirely in internal messages. One participant noted that email tone can vary by recipient and company culture. The discussion took place during a session focused on workplace communication norms. The summit addressed multiple workplace topics over several days in May 2026.
