What to include

  • Name and title, with the company in the accent color.
  • An assistant's line if one manages your calendar.
  • Grayscale LinkedIn, or no social icons at all.
  • A compact version for replies.

What works for executives

  • 1

    Grayscale social icons and a slate accent read as confidence, not restraint.

  • 2

    Include an assistant's line if one handles your calendar — it saves everyone a step.

  • 3

    Compact is right for replies; keep the fuller version for first contact.

Common questions

Should an executive's signature include a photo?
Usually not. Leadership signatures tend to be text-first so the message carries the authority. Founders who are the public face of a company are the common exception.
How do I include my assistant's contact details?
Use the office phone field for the assistant's line; it renders labeled 'Office' beside your mobile. Their email can go in the disclaimer slot as a short line.

Every template here is free to customize in the signature generator and install yourself. If your company runs on Google Workspace, the same design can be applied to every employee from the admin side — see how team management works.
