Every year, the 1st year students undergo this workshop in the 2nd semester. This is a workshop conducted by Dr. Homayun Taba and Dr. Marguerite Theophil, Organisational Consultant. The 3 day workshop is structured to provide experiential inputs on intrapersonal and interpersonal growth. It provides learning inputs as well as opportunities for introspection and sharing.

The budding managers must know it all…. FEET review is an exercise of the students, for the students and by the students. It essentially means financial express and Economic Times review. Every week a different group of students brief the rest with the happenings in the different sectors and companies. The changing face of the economy is then discussed under the guidance of the faculty. This weekly exercise helps us Agnelites keep a track of the latest industry happenings, the share prices, the government policies, and the names that are making the news. This discussion forum also acts as a platform for the students to put forth their ideas, opinions and views and get a feed back for the same.
