Old Mutual IT executive for employee and workplace enablement Nomsa Lewisa is the guest in this episode of TechCentral’s TCS+ business technology podcast.
In the show, Lewisa – who is joined later in the discussion by Workday South Africa MD Kiv Moodley – unpacks Old Mutual’s strategic priorities and how technology is helping the company achieve its business objectives.
The podcast, the latest in a series by Workday grouped under the theme of “change makers”, explores how Old Mutual is using technology – including Workday solutions – to improve its human capital management systems.
In the interview, Lewisa discusses:
• Her role at Old Mutual and what it entails;
• The evolution of this role in the last few years, especially in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, the work-from-home mandates and the emerging world of hybrid work;
• The future of work, and how it is influencing Old Mutual’s strategy around its people and their development;
• The projects that are a top priority for Old Mutual;
• The strategic relationship between Old Mutual and Workday and what it entails; and
• What deploying Workday solutions has allowed Old Mutual to do better, including attracting and retaining scarce skills.
Moodley then joins the conversation, sharing insight into Workday, the history of the company’s relationship with Old Mutual, and the impact of technology on human resources and financial leaders in South Africa.
