Life At Sagacious IP

Creating A Culture Of Innovation

At Sagacious Research, we don't just celebrate Valentine's

Day with our loved ones, but also with our Sagacian family.

The day marked love and respect for all around us, wherein

the team engaged in various initiatives.

In celebration of India's 70th Republic Day, our team at

Sagacious Research celebrated the vibrant spirit of

independence, with beautiful tricolor office décor and

numerous in – house fun activities.

The last quarter of 2018 – 2019 has been one of the best quarters, not only in terms of

the festival celebrations, but also the numerous trainings organized & the Leadership

Meet.

Leadership offsite Meet was organized in the month of

February in Goa wherein all BU Heads and Managers

gathered together to discuss and brainstorm various plans

and came up with new ideas and initiatives that we can take

in the coming year, that will not only improve our overall

business numbers and internal collaboration but will also help us to grow as a IP Brand

in the market. We have started implementing a lot of ideas already and will be working

towards achieving all our plans in the current financial year.

Festivals are always fun, and the fun multiplies many folds,

when they are celebrated together. There is no Lohri fun

without the dhol beats, the traditional attire, the Indian

customs and the ethnic dance. All this summed up to an

awesome Lohri celebration for Sagacians this year.

Holi was celebrated with full enthusiasm and rigor within the

office premises. The festival was celebrated with beautiful

office decoration, tattoo – making competition, dance

competition and sweets distribution amongst all the staff.

As a token to celebrate womanhood and their contributions

to the society, Sagacious IP graced the presence of a Ms. Rina

Sharma, who spoke in line with this year's International

Women's Day theme – 'Balance for Better'. The theme and

her speech specifically called out for gender equality, be it in

work opportunities, leadership positions, media & sports industry and even in our

diverse corporate workforce. We started the celebration with women candidate referral

week for our various open positions. On Women's day management team had specially

addressed Sagacious women, the day ended with first day special screening of 'Captain

Marvel' movie.

Along with employee engagement, we also conducted two

training sessions for our Bangalore and Gurgaon team. The

first training for Bangalore team revolved around 'Critical

Conversation', wherein we trained the employees on how to

handle emotions at work, walk through delicate conversation

episodes, with a focus on improving efficiency and productivity at work. The second

training was held for the BU Heads at Gurgaon which focused on 'Giving & Receiving

Feedback'. It focused on why giving regular feedback becomes important and how we

can utilize the feedback process to improve work efficiency, both ways. It also cited that

it is one of the most crucial conversation methods, which can lead to organizational

growth.
