Most companies embark on transformation and change programs without assessing their internal capabilities and often, they fail.

Most technology functions are being asked to hire and build new capabilities, do more with less and keep systems running seamlessly whilst analyzing data and protecting critical data. These cannot be achieved with having the right talent in the right roles at the right time. Businesses who are lagging in embracing digital are often being led by managers whose skills and management style are outdated. Even worse, they are the ones who are then tasked with hiring and leading future plans and roadmaps.

We work with such organizations to assess their current capabilities based on their business objectives and help them redesign their organization, align roles with the right skills and change their business culture to successfully navigate digital transformation. Whether you are looking to reinvent your business to focus on digital initiatives to improve productivity and reduce costs; or focus on existing or new digital ways to connect with customers or ecommerce, we take a more strategic approach to workforce planning for internal and external talent.

We develop talent pipelines to hire better calibre candidates and retain and develop high potential and emerging talent.

C-Level Technology Leadership.

As digitalization and technology become more central to an organization, its success depends on whether the CIO or CTO is a functional or strategic business leader. The challenge for most organizations is that their technology leaders have not stepped beyond transactional IT to transform IT into a critical business value driver.

At a strategic level Chief Technology and Chief Information Officers are critical to their success focusing on how to leverage technology to grow the business through innovation and transformation. CTO and CIO roles are responsible for moving from a process level position to a strategic differentiator to add value through digital and cloud enablement for new operating models, multi-channel connectivity to customers, data and media convergence and analytics.

Many businesses are straddling between their legacy systems and implementing cloud-based and digitalization technologies that are more suitable for their internal and client needs. The disruption has resulted in new business models impacting, operations, service delivery, product and services development, client acquisition and marketing.

We work with CEOs and business owners to recruit senior technology leaders who can comfortably transform legacy technologies and adopt emerging technologies to meet new business model requirements and integrate them into every facet of the organization. By driving technology change, our candidates are enabling their organizations to make the customer central to any business decision to ensure success.

Because our candidates are developed leaders, they create high performing teams. We work with them to build an IT function that supports employee engagement, retention, upskilling and career development. We also build talent pipelines that create new opportunities for existing employees.

When recruiting for senior IT roles we focus on candidates’ capabilities to integrate robust solutions in every aspect of strategy and operating model throughout the organization to drive efficiencies and optimal business performance.

Our candidates are collaborative and work best cross-functionally to eliminate obstacles.

As the pace of change increase, it is no longer enough to have technical or specialist skills. Today's technology leaders must have strong in human, soft and business skills.
