CII Western Region’s Post

DEPRESSION: There are 200 different types. Only 30 of them can be treated through medication. Balance? That's the problem. Most depression, needs proper intervention and care. The global loss due mental illness is a whopping Rs 85 lakh crore or $1 Trillion. CII WESTERN REGION took on itself the task of addressing this issue, which is generally not discussed. #CII #CIIwesternregion #Emotionalwellbeing #Mentalhealth

𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 As a health and wellness coach, I have always experienced that many clients sometimes need to be more motivated when they cannot get the targeted results in a particular time frame. They get disheartened and at times even discontinue their fitness routine, but considering how everybody’s body is different, the results might not be the desired ones, when we sit back and reflect on the time when they had begun and the change that has come over the period is also worth celebrating and an important milestone. So, to keep my fit center buddies motivated and to never quit their fitness journey, we together help them celebrate every minor change and milestone they achieve and this comes from making them understand that the desired results are not the only focus, but the journey of growth, transformation, change and the spirit of never giving up is what matters the most. Reflecting on how far one has come because we all are unique is what gives us the will to not give up and at my center in Mumbai, I see to it that all my clients become each other’s support system like a community, so that no one feels alone in this journey. Remember, your fitness journey is uniquely yours. Let's continue to support and inspire each other, turning setbacks into comebacks and challenges into triumphs.

When I arrived in the UK from India, one of the ‘positive’ cultural shocks I experienced was the absence of honking on the roads —how is it even possible to see a busy road without honking noise? Having spent all my medical school years and more in the heart of a busy city, honking had become such a part of everyday life that I didn’t even notice it anymore. But noise pollution is a very under-recognised health and environmental issue. Research shows that it can cause or worsen cardiovascular disease, Type 2 Diabetes, sleep disturbances, and mental health issues. It’s very reassuring to see that the Mumbai Police are taking real action to address ‘noise’ pollution that has ironically remained silent for so long. They’ve introduced a system where the red light signal lasts longer if drivers honk while waiting - funny it might seem! Obviously, this comes with a huge price of delays for the public. However, sometimes, a bit of negative feedback is necessary, especially when enforcing societal behavioural change in a diverse demographic like India. Check out this short video of angry drivers and laughing public to see this initiative in action - hopefully this sparks similar actions across the country—and maybe even beyond! What else can we do to reduce this under-recognised problem of noise? #Noisepollution #Health #Medicine #Mumbai #India #UK #PLAB #PublicHealth #MentalHealth #SustainableCities #MedicalCommunity #TrafficSafety #UrbanWellbeing #SocialInnovation #EnvironmentalAwareness #CityLife #Sustainability #Negativefeedback Video courtesy : Mumbai Police / Inuth

Executive Forecast had the pleasure of meeting Navneet Saluja, General Manager, Haleon, Indian Sub-Continent, for our upcoming feature India 2025 "Beyond Volume" in collaboration with Forbes India. We had a great discussion about how Haleon is leading the way in preventive healthcare, ensuring that consumers understand and address their health needs early. The company's dual engagement strategy bridges scientific insights with consumer awareness, helping people make informed health choices. To put it in Navneet Saluja's own words: “As life expectancy increases, the question becomes not just about longevity but about healthy longevity. Education has a ripple effect and often sparks broader lifestyle changes. When people tell us we've ‘changed their lives,’ it really means that we have provided the tools and knowledge.” Haleon’s approach to healthcare is deeply rooted in education, prevention, and accessibility, recognizing that better health drives economic growth.

Why is it Hard to Acquire Retail Customers for Condition Management Programs in India? Price sensitive retail customers find these programs (₹12-25K for 3-6 months) expensive. To justify value, companies increase follow-ups by Health Coaches, leading to fatigue, low response, and poor compliance—ultimately failing to drive behavior change, lifestyle change and health improvement. Worse, CAC via digital marketing often exceeds the lifetime revenue from these customers. Now, compare this with bundling condition management as a value-added service with other healthcare products or services. Here, follow-up intensity is based on health risk categorization, not excessive calls, resulting in better outcomes and superior unit economics. Lesson: Instead of selling standalone condition management programs, integrate them into broader healthcare offerings.
