This blessing was sent to me in an email some time back by a friend. It is by John O'Donohue (1956-2008) see link here . It's a good prayer to pray for colleagues. So I think of all those I have had the privilege of working closely with over the years, especially those who have been in 'my team' (you know who you are!)
I particularly like the idea of being 'present in what you do' rather than being 'lost in bland absences'.

May the light of your soul guide you
May the light of your soul bless the work that you do
with the secret love and warmth of your heart.
May you see in what you do the beauty of your own soul.
May the sacredness of your work bring healing, light
and renewal to those who work with you
and to those who see and receive your work.
May your work never weary you.
May it release within you wellsprings of
refreshment, inspiration and excitement.
May you be present in what you do.
May you never become lost in bland absences.
May the day never burden.
May dawn find you awake and alert,
approaching your new day with dreams, possibilities and promises.
May evening find you gracious and fulfilled.
May you go into the night blessed, sheltered and protected.
