I want to thank the whole team for the support.
'Ringraziare' = rin-gra-TSYA-reh. Five syllables.
Use this in your farewell email, leaving speech or final team meeting. Expressing gratitude to the entire team rather than just the supervisor shows social intelligence and genuine appreciation.
Collective gratitude in Italian professional culture is important. 'Tutto il team' (the whole team) is inclusive and avoids appearing to favour specific individuals, which could create awkwardness.
È stato un piacere lavorare con tutti voi.
It has been a pleasure working with all of you.
Warm and collegial; can be said directly in person
Ogni membro del team mi ha insegnato qualcosa.
Every team member has taught me something.
Personal and specific; very well received
Grazie per avermi accolto così bene.
Thank you for welcoming me so warmly.
Refers to the warm welcome; acknowledges the team's hospitality
Leaving food ('portare qualcosa da mangiare') for the team on your last day is a widespread Italian workplace tradition. Bringing cornetti (croissants), a torta (cake) or other treats is a warm, culturally resonant gesture that will be remembered fondly.
