Transforming HR in digital Pakistan | Fatima | Abacus

Globally, it is predicted that 4 billion people will be online and 7.6 billion active cell phones will be in use by 2020. This exponential growth has also resonated in Pakistan with almost 120 million mobile subscribers currently. In the digital world, the skills required today will not disappear completely but will fundamentally change in the next 10 years.


With artificial intelligence and robotics infiltrating across many organizations, it will impact transactional roles and increase the need for more analytical and research skills. Pakistani organizations must commit to transforming their HR skills by clearly understanding the external and internal challenges. Digital leadership brings with it different needs including mindfulness, visionary mindset attuned to a digital and the local world, ability to drive high performance of collaborative and increasingly cross-functional teams and a quick entrepreneurial ability to ensure continuous innovation is a process embedded in the value cycle of the organization.
