ANYONE CAN BE A ‘FATHER’, BUT IT TAKES SOMEONE SPECIAL TO BE A DAD.

Let’s face it, our working lives constitute a whoppingly large part of our day, and while we are at work, we are focussing on career goal, deadlines, making sure we get in new business, taking care of existing clients, balancing accounts – the ‘To Do’ list becomes rather formidable. Ever wondered where the day went to when you were super busy? 

Sure, it might seem super-obvious, but if we are this busy at work, we certainly won’t have the chance to spend as much time as we would like with our loved ones, back at home. Next best thing? Celebrating Father’s day in the workplace!

To fulfil this emotional gap, often, we seek to find these fatherly connections at work, with people who may share similar personality traits with our own fathers. We all know the type…  dads, grandfathers, stepdads and of course, work dads are often trustworthy reliable, kind, supportive and look out for the best interest of others. 

These are also the qualities of great colleagues, suppliers, clients, employees, managers, leaders, and business owners. Mentorship by older men, made readily available to both younger men and women colleagues often precipitate this closeness.

If you’ve benefited from their advice, career or otherwise, if they’ve been a shoulder to cry on, or helped you cope with a recent heartbreak, wouldn’t it be great to lavish a bit of love and to spoil them on Father’s Day, at the office, with Ignition’s range of corporate gifts for Father’s Day? If you sincerely have the heart for them, then we have the perfect corporate gift for men, just for you!

Gadgets, and all thing electronic respond to his magical touch, because this is the dad that places himself at the leading edge of all things technological. He probably knows about the latest tech gadget even before you do!

We’ve got accessories that will really make his day, from laptop bags, smart tablet folders and protectors, power banks to keep his devices fully charged and on the ready (especially great during load shedding), USB-powered gadgets, and most things that Tech-savvy Dad will absolutely love.

Here’s the dad who understands that food is not just about nutrition and filling your belly, he’s the dad that has taken food to an artistic new level. There’s nothing that he probably wouldn’t have in his recipe repertoire that won’t send your tastebuds into sheer ecstasy. Your packed lunches were probably the envy of every kid at school!

Now’ the time to help him accessorise and put a bit of style and glamour into his favourite room in the house… the kitchen! From cool citrus juicing devices, knives, sharpeners, cutting boards, funky aprons, and food prep tool, Foodie Dad will be spoiled for choice.

Camping, fishing, hunting… or just taking that stunning nature trail up into the mountains, this dad is drawn to nature and the great outdoors, and probably loves nothing better than to drag you along with him. From backpacks to outdoor survival kits, cool head and eyewear, pocket knives, and other cool outdoorsy items.

He’s found the perfect work/life balance, managing his business from the comfort of his own home, this dad has it all under control. From planning his day, checking emails and messages, answering clients, fulfilling orders, creating, and sending quotes to invoicing and chasing up payments, he does it all with a smile and totally takes everything that work throws at him in his stride.

He’d love our range of writing instruments, personalised notepads, folios, leather satchels, and desktop organisers to make his day go by a lot smoother. A personalised coffee mug may also be just the thing, to make his home office feel a bit more like work. Check out our stationery range here.

He’s the dad that has perfected the art of taking care of the home, picking up and dropping the kids off at school, doing the grocery shopping and paying the bills, cleaning, cooking, doing the laundry and not forgetting soccer practice and ballet classes!
