\nPresident of Jazz\u2019s Consumer Division, Kazim Mujtaba, emphasised that human capital is no longer just a priority but the defining factor in a company\u2019s digital transformation.
\n\u201cIn today\u2019s digital economy, it is no longer one priority among many; it is the determinant of whether a business can transform, scale, and stay competitive.
\nTechnology, capital, and strategy can only create value when organizations have the capability, adaptability, and leadership to execute them,\u201d he said while speaking at the recent HR Metrics Forum, where Board Directors and C-suite leaders examined the ISO 30414:2025 framework.
\nMetrics once viewed as traditional HR indicators \u2014 engagement, skills readiness, leadership depth, inclusion, and pay equity \u2014 are now emerging as leading signals of enterprise performance and long-term resilience.
\n\u201cAs the company evolves into a multi-vertical, digital-first ServiceCo, the very nature of work is undergoing a reset,\u201d he said. \u201cRoles across the organisation are increasingly technology-driven, demanding teams to adopt and adapt digital tools for speed, productivity, and stronger decision-making.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kazim Mujtaba, President of Jazz\u2019s Consumer Division, articulated this reality through Jazz\u2019s own transformation journey. <\/p>\n
Kazim added that skills are becoming more fluid and cross-functional, with shorter half-lives that necessitate continuous learning. \u201cLeadership pipelines must now extend across newer verticals, including fintech, cloud, digital platforms, and AI, while culture, inclusion, and pay equity have become central to shaping trust, performance, and retention,\u201d he stressed.
\nIn such a landscape, Kazim noted that traditional HR metrics no longer provide a sufficient forward-looking view. They reflect the past rather than the capabilities an organisation must build for the future. He emphasised the need for modern, predictive human capital metrics that enable boards to understand capability gaps, succession depth, digital skills readiness, and cultural resilience. These insights, he stressed, are now core to effective governance and long-term value creation.
\nFor Jazz, Kazim informed, strengthening human capital intelligence is not a parallel HR exercise but a strategic pillar of its ServiceCo transition. \u201cIt ensures that the pace of people development keeps up with the pace of technological change, and that the workforce is prepared for the next decade of digital innovation.\u201d
\nKazim shared that human capital hasn\u2019t simply become more important, but it has become defining. \u201cThe companies that will lead the future are those that recognise human capability not as an enabler of strategy, but as the strategy itself.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
