At IKIGAI Events, we believe that a truly engaged workforce is the key to a thriving organization. Rooted in the Japanese philosophy of "Ikigai"—which translates to “a reason for being”—our work is driven by the idea that people find purpose at the intersection of what they love, what they’re good at, what the world needs, and what they can be rewarded for.
That same principle fuels IKIGAI Events: we craft meaningful, immersive, and dynamic employee engagement experiences that bring joy, connection, and purpose into the workplace.
From corporate events and team-building activities to virtual programs and wellness initiatives, we offer tailor-made solutions that elevate workplace culture and energize your teams. Whether your workforce is remote, hybrid, or on-site, our innovative approach ensures that every employee feels valued, motivated, and inspired.
Prashant brings over 25 years of rich experience in Human Resources, spanning Talent Acquisition, Learning & Development, HR Business Partnering, and Employee Engagement. A true people champion, he has a knack for building high-performing teams and creating workplace cultures that thrive.
During his tenure at Randstad (formerly EmmayHR Services), Prashant wore multiple hats—leading the HR function, heading the profit center for Pune, and playing a pivotal role in setting up multiple Global Capability Centers (GCCs) from the ground up. His ability to blend strategic vision with execution made him a key architect in these successful ventures.
As Employee No. 2 at METRO Services, he took on the challenge of building the Talent Acquisition framework from scratch while driving Employee Engagement initiatives that played a crucial role in METRO Services earning the coveted "Great Place to Work" recognition.
In his final corporate stint, Prashant spearheaded Talent Development, Employee Engagement, and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) for Principal Global Services India and the Philippines. He streamlined processes, redefined engagement strategies, and took workplace morale to new heights.
But if you ask him what truly drives him, his answer is simple: Employee Engagement. His passion for fostering a connected, motivated workforce goes beyond just policies and frameworks—it’s about creating environments where people feel valued, inspired, and empowered. After all, engaged employees don’t just stay—they thrive, innovate, and deliver exceptional results.
Now, he channels that passion into Ikigai, helping organizations unlock their full potential by making work not just a place to be, but a place to belong.

The workplace has changed — and so have the people in it. Today’s employees want more than a salary; they seek meaning, connection, flexibility, and well-being. Yet, despite hybrid work models and wellness conversations, employee engagement is declining — especially in India. The cost of ignoring this? Lost productivity, rising attrition, and a disengaged workforce that quietly stalls growth.
In this blog, we unpack why employee engagement isn’t just a nice-to-have — but a must-have.
