Anjali's story began with a solid academic foundation. She excelled in school, consistently scoring above 85% and earning scholarships. Later, with a B.Com. (Hons.) and an MBA, she started her career at a leading investment research and analytics firm. Her dedication and skills quickly propelled her to manage top investment bankers and lead a team of 20 members. Ambitious and driven, Anjali soon transitioned to a leadership role as Head of HR for the company’s subsidiary firm. Here, she demonstrated her strategic acumen, expanding the company's headcount from 250 to over 500 employees, strategizing new lines of business, and hiring directors and VPs across geographies. She had a speckless record of international audits of SOX and ISO.

However, life threw its challenges at Anjali. Balancing a demanding career and motherhood became increasingly difficult after the birth of her second child. Feeling that she wasn't doing justice to either role, she took a tough decision—to step back from her career at its peak. The transition from corporate meetings to household chores was jarring, and the shift in her daily interactions was a stark contrast to her previous professional life.

Despite the hiatus, Anjali’s passion for her work never waned. After four years, the desire to return to her professional roots grew stronger. The COVID-19 pandemic, however, further delayed her plans. Recognizing the drastic changes the pandemic brought to work environments and employee well-being, Anjali saw an opportunity to leverage her HR expertise in a new venture.

Determined to make a difference, Anjali partnered with Mr. Anwar Husaain, a fitness coach, ultra marathon runner, and choreographer. Together, they founded Capers Corporate Wellness Pvt. Ltd., a company dedicated to enhancing employee well-being through a holistic approach. Capers offers a comprehensive range of services under one roof, including event organization, team-building activities, training sessions, ice breakers, offsite trips, live performances, stand-up comedy shows, drum circles, sports events, choreographies, and fitness sessions.

What sets Anjali apart is her unique approach to corporate wellness. She understands that employee engagement and well-being are critical to an organization's success.

Anjali and Anwar help organizations create a healthy environment where employees can thrive both personally and professionally, thus fostering a culture of happiness and productivity. Her ability to blend her HR experience with innovative wellness solutions has made Capers a go-to partner for many prestigious clients across various industries and government bodies.

Anjali's motivation stems from her unwavering belief in creating a positive impact. She draws inspiration from her challenges, using them as stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks. Her journey is a powerful reminder that setbacks are temporary and can lead to greater opportunities if approached with resilience and a forward-thinking mindset.

Today, Capers Corporate Wellness Pvt. Ltd. shines brightly in the corporate world, reflecting Anjali’s vision and hard work. Her journey from a dedicated HR professional to a pioneering entrepreneur underscores the importance of adaptability, perseverance, and innovation.

In Anjali’s own words, "Challenges are the fuel that drives us to innovate and excel." She is unstoppable, continually creating the future she envisions, one step at a time.
