“Effective immediately.” = Hostile, forceful.
“Effective yesterday.” = Mysterious, invites questions, makes you sound like a time-traveler.

I always find the phrasing of “effective immediately…” to sound a bit hostile, but I hope the transition is smooth.

Slightly better “this happened weeks ago but we’re just now getting around to updating everyone”.

And that’s slightly better than “this happened weeks ago but we’re just now getting around to updating everyone because we were trying to hide the fact that we had a leadership change”.
