what would you recommend a good group gift from employees to female chasidish boss?
tasteful yet affordable (if that's possible Smile)

What would the occasion be? Generally you don't gift up.

I agree with @singleagain, I think it's a bad idea. She's your employer, not your friend.

Eta,
If you must give something, save it for purim

I don't think it's necessarily appropriate. Maybe a card is really like you know. Design a little card. Write a card or something. gifting up gets dicey.

Specifying that she's female changes things a bit.
Still agree with singleagain on it being inappropriate, knowing that she's female makes me feel better in case you decide not to listen to us.

We've done meat boards or wine.
We also did shabbos table gifts from Waterdale.
We also did a pretty salad bowl and serving pieces from a local gift store.

It is really fine to gift. Everyone likes being thought about.
Mines not chasidish but all the employees are. Hi workmates!

If your gifting a principal, from the teachers, for sure it's done.

I’m chassidish and have received gifts from my not chassidish and some not Jewish staff. Once all my staff got me a giftcard to a spa. I’ve also received and appreciated Fancy chocolates
Table decor.

I don't get the issue. We gift our female boss occasionally.
