Here are some key takeaways from Tinku’s interview:
Big data transforms businesses
Big data and data analytics is an intrinsic part of day-to-day activities. We ensure that we unlock and collect all data in one central data environment. We also ensure that data is easily accessible. Data allows our customers to trade and helps us manage risk. Digitalization and cross-domain data will spearhead this journey.
Digitalization improves customer experience
We have to live and breathe automation. We constantly question how we can reduce manual involvement and the failure rate. I believe the adoption of AI will differentiate the ‘wait-and-watch’ players from the first movers.
A woman’s multitasking ability makes her a great tech leader
Women can multitask and love being perfectionists. That makes them great tech leaders. As business leaders need to manage the paradox of adopting the best technology while staying cost-efficient and aligned to business goals.
