Christmas is a time for giving and what Christmas would be complete without the dreaded Secret Santa custom. By now your names will have gone into a hat and you will have undoubtedly pulled out the name of the person you’ve never even spoken to; or worse you’ve pulled out your Managers name.
With its popularity growing every year the pressure is on to deliver yet another gift that is not only witty, appropriate and light hearted, but also inoffensive, non-embarrassing and cheap. Not an easy task.
We love a challenge at Sema4 and embrace any excuse to get our thinking hats on. So, if your imagination has already put its ‘Out of Office’ on and has left you high and dry in a state of panic, then look no further.
Check out our suggestions for small yet mighty gifts, that will have your recipient smiling and may even bag you that Christmas Bonus.
