Wellness Insights: Corporate Wellness Programs in India by ASK Insights
ASK Insights designs corporate wellness programs in India for organizations seeking a structured, year-long plan rather than a once-a-year health check-up. The Wellness Insights capsule brings together senior psychologists, medical specialists, and certified coaches into a single program, shaped around what your workforce actually needs.
What Is Wellness Insights?
Wellness Insights is ASK Insights’ corporate wellness program for organizations in India and abroad. It runs as a one-year capsule, not a string of one-off events, and it is built for CHROs, People and Culture leaders, and business leaders who need psychological support, physical wellbeing, and preventive health under one program, with outcomes they can actually report to leadership.
Dr. Niru Kumar leads the program. She is a medical doctor with close to three decades of clinical experience, and she works alongside a network of senior psychologists, psychiatrists, and medical specialists. Most wellness offerings stop at a workshop calendar. Wellness Insights goes further: one-to-one counselling, corporate workshops, health camps, and wellbeing assessments, all inside a single organizational program.
Corporate Wellness Programs in India: What Does the Wellness Insights Capsule Include?
Every organization that works with ASK Insights receives a one-year Wellness Insights capsule. It is organized across five areas, and the exact mix gets agreed with your HR team based on headcount, budget, and what your people actually need.
Psychological and Mental Wellbeing Support
Up to fifteen one-to-one counselling sessions a month with senior psychologists sit at the centre of the mental health clinic. Life coaching and relationship counselling are also available, for employees who want support outside a clinical setting.
Corporate Wellbeing Workshops
Four workshops a year, chosen from themes such as stress management, emotional intelligence through neuro-linguistic programming, resilience and leadership, women’s leadership, and transformational mentoring. Each one is led by a certified facilitator, not a generalist trainer brought in for the day.
Preventive Health and Medical Specialist Access
Three health talks and two health camps a year put senior consultants directly in front of your workforce: cardiology, gynaecology, dermatology, dentistry, ophthalmology, paediatrics, and lifestyle medicine. Most of these specialists practise at BLK Super Speciality Hospital, Medanta, or Apollo on any other day of the week.
Holistic Wellbeing Sessions
Mindfulness, meditation, yoga, nutrition, and Reiki round out the offering, drawing on more than two decades of in-house experience in mindfulness and spiritual wellbeing practice.
A Whole-Person Approach: The C.A.R.E. Model
ASK Insights organizes Wellness Insights around what it calls the C.A.R.E. Model: a four-stage approach for moving an organization from a single wellbeing initiative to something sustained.
Check-in comes first: diagnostics of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health across the workforce. Awareness follows, building a shared understanding of what those diagnostics actually show, so leadership and employees are working from the same picture instead of guesswork. Revive is the skill-building stage, delivered through the workshops, coaching, and holistic sessions described above. Engage keeps it going: counselling, health camps, and periodic reassessment that carry the program well past the launch event and through the rest of the year.
This is why ASK Insights calls it a capsule and not a workshop series. Each stage depends on the one before it. The program is meant to run continuously, across the physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual sides of employee wellbeing.
Wellbeing Assessments and Organizational Insights
Before recommending which workshops or specialists an organization needs most, ASK Insights runs psychometric assessments across up to five hundred employees. The goal is simple: measure current wellbeing and happiness levels instead of guessing at them.
These assessments give HR and leadership a baseline to plan against, and a way to see whether wellbeing is actually improving over the course of the capsule. That is more useful than counting attendance at workshops or reading through feedback forms. ASK Insights does not position this as a proprietary analytics platform. It is a defined benchmarking process, repeated periodically, so organizations can see where their wellbeing priorities should sit next year compared with where they started.
The Expertise Behind Wellness Insights
Dr. Niru Kumar, MBBS, is the Founder and CEO of ASK Insights and a Padma Shri recipient. She brought nearly thirty years in clinical medicine to the practice, including a term as Chief Officer in India’s Central Government Health Services, before turning her attention to organizational wellbeing. Dr. Akshay Kumar directs the psychological and coaching side of the program. He holds a PhD in Clinical and Positive Psychology and lectures at London Business School.
The wider consultant network runs deep: Dr. Prem Kumar Ganesan (Director, Radiology, BLK Super Speciality Hospital), Dr. Neeraj Bhalla (Cardiology, BLK Super Speciality Hospital), Dr. Sudipto Pakrasi (Ophthalmology, Medanta Hospital), and Dr. Lalita Bhadhwar (Gynaecology, Apollo Hospital), alongside senior specialists in paediatrics, dermatology, dentistry, and lifestyle medicine. Coaches and facilitators such as Poorvi Sarin and Danijela Radonic Bhandari hold certifications from bodies including the California Hypnosis Institute and Harvard University’s positive psychology programme.
Who Is Wellness Insights Designed For?
Wellness Insights tends to suit organizations that have outgrown the single annual health check-up and want something HR can plan a full year around. Think of companies building a structured employee wellbeing strategy from scratch, or organizations that want professional psychological support available to staff without routing every case through an external helpline. It also fits businesses that want senior medical specialists on hand directly, without a referral chain, and HR teams that need to report wellbeing outcomes to leadership with an actual baseline to measure against, not attendance counts alone.
