We were front and center at The Hindu HR Conclave 2024, held in Chennai on 18 October 2024, on the theme of "Shaping the Future of Managing Workforce – Embrace DEI, Empower Change."

Here's to making the world more inclusive, where everyone can be the best version of themselves!
Talking about how organizations can build and harness social capital, Kaushik Sarawgi, MD and SVP for RRD GO Creative, said at an Economic Times event held in Chennai in June 2024, "social capital is downstream from culture". At RRD, a strong people culture has always been at the core of how we operate.
We came, we (cos)played, we won! RRD GO Creative was present at the first edition of the Chennai Comic Con, with an in-house developed game! Two of our employees won in the Sci-Fi and Overall categories, too!
Food for thought. Thoughts for action! That sums up the 2024 all-employee townhall with our MD and SVP, Kaushik Swarawgi and the entire leadership team. Where people-culture is core to how a business operates, transparent and two-way communication is key. Which is why, in addition to regular team and division-level townhalls and meetings, the annual townhall with leadership has so much energy and the Q&A sessions brim with questions.
Celebrating ideas and ideators! 100+ entries, 10 finalists, one mega finale with external jury. That was GamePlan 2023.

When you can teach, you empower. Given the sheer breadth of services we offer, we have a treasure trove of learning resources at RRD. We decided to take some of these learning assets, particularly those that impact nifty skills that can be utilized in several places. We embarked on this journey with a series curated for the children of our employees. Called ‘Opening the Doors’ (to learning), the sessions taught the kids how to how make comic strips using free could-based design apps, and some nifty MS Office tips. There was a lot for the older kids too, who are taking on the world of board exams and competitive exams. Our trainers delivered sessions on managing exam stress, soft skills, career guidance and associated topics. We are looking to take some of our learning assets to the community at large in partnership with NGOs
