Q1 Reflections & Q2 Aspirations: Powering Progress with Urja

 Q1 Quarterly Review: A Quarter of Change, Urja, and a Look Ahead

The energy was high as IPSRians came together for the Q1 Quarterly Review Meeting — a milestone moment that celebrated our collective adoption of the Urja Change Management Processes.

A Word from the CEO: Applause and Purpose

Our CEO opened the meeting by congratulating every IPSRian for embracing the Urja mindset — a structured, impactful approach to change management. He explained how Urja helps us focus on measurable outcomes and why this shift is essential for driving sustainable growth.

The results of Q1 showed the power of team-driven growth. Looking forward, Q2 will focus on strengthening individual contributions to complement the team’s progress.

Q1 Urja Awards – Finalists Announced

Recognition and appreciation were a highlight of the meeting, as the CEO announced the Q1 Urja Award finalists. These individuals and teams were acknowledged for their exceptional contributions, innovation, and measurable impact during the quarter.

The measurable impact created by these finalists perfectly reflected the spirit of Urja and set a high bar for all of us moving forward.

What’s Next: Q2 with You at the Centre

Looking ahead, the CEO called on every IPSRian to take ownership of their individual growth by drafting Q2 plans at the earliest. Each plan should outline:

* Three to five key tasks you aim to achieve

* Weekly task alignment with your team leader

* Metrics you will track to monitor progress

This quarter is an opportunity for each individual to build on team success and deliver personal excellence.

Words of Wisdom from our Director

The meeting featured an inspiring talk by our Director, Dr. Suresh Nambathothiri, who shared his insights on staying relevant in a dynamic environment. Quoting his former employer, Ratan Tata, he reminded us:

“Become valuable. Remain relevant.”

A simple but profound message that resonates with the Urja philosophy.

Closing on a Positive Note

The session concluded with team leaders sharing their experiences from Q1 — stories of challenges faced, lessons learned, and wins that made the quarter memorable.

Here’s to making Q2 even more impactful through individual growth, measurable contributions, and a shared commitment to excellence.

Seminar at BVM College Cherpunkal

The 3rd seminar in the IPSR Decennial Seminar Series at BVM College was a big hit. But missing in attendance was the Computer Science HOD Binu Sir who is away honeymooning. Nothing wrong with prioritising, I suppose!

IPSR has an academic tieup with the college and supports it in Projects, Certifications,Training, Recruitment Drives and Placements. The college was in the lime light recently when their BCA batch got a 100% pass and set a world record. IPSR is thrilled to share this training success with the college. This is the first time a college has been a test center and achieved a 100% pass. All this under the able guidance of their Principal Rev. Dr. Mathew Maleparambil. Now the MCA and BCA 2nd Year students are studying for the upcoming RHCE exams with a frenzy. Will they set another record?

100% in RHCE Exam!

Sandeep C N andRashmil VM, students of ipsr solutions Ltd. Learning Services have bagged a 100% result in the recent RHCE exams. Congratulations!!!

BOY WONDER

IPSR’s own Boy Wonder, Rajat Mendus did us proud by becoming the World’s Youngest RHCE. RHCE, as we all know is a value-driven international certification from Redhat, the Linux giant, that is very difficult to obtain. But we did it …oops … he did it. Rajat, a Std. 6 student at Excelsior School, Kottayam, Kerala, India is just 11 years old. Rajat is also a class topper and an avid gamer. Ask him what his next goal is and guess what he says? RHCSS, of course. And we IPSRians hope that he will create another World Redhat Record.
