I first met Asit over two decades ago — a detail-oriented project manager who always had a warm word and quick wit. Now a Vice President elsewhere, his voice still brings me a daily dose of joy and reflection.
One story that never leaves me: he once told me about his manager’s ritual of doing a short meditation before each one-on-one meeting—especially performance reviews—treating them like a small ceremony of connection. That wisdom stayed with me.
But what truly defines Asit is how he brings heart and discipline into everything he does. Wherever he is in the world, he never misses his running routine. Not just for fitness, he builds running communities— and later became part of a largest residential community run to raise funds for charitable work in the areas of education and women empowerment. Imagine what this could do for workplace wellness!
And then there’s his other unexpected circle: personal finance. Asit created an investment community in our company, inviting experts to guide small groups. It wasn’t just about making money—it was about shared learning, empowerment, and financial confidence.
Though finance is deeply personal, employee-led groups like his could become invaluable CSR assets. Imagine financial coaching for underserved communities or creating savings tools for families in need.
Asit embodies Kinesthetic intelligence through running, and Logical-Mathematical intelligence through financial mentoring. I sense there’s more — creativity, strategic thinking, perhaps even more dormant talents waiting to bloom.
Dear HR and CSR Leaders —
Do you have an “Asit” in your midst — someone whose passions can seed community, wellness (Physical and Financial), and impact?
Would you give them the space to run your wellness mission forward?
And could they teach financial fitness to communities your organisation supports?
Because somewhere in your workforce, a next-generation Asit is waiting to lace up — and inspire.
