Since coming to Capco from Accenture last year, Ismail Amla has been pretty busy—to say the least. Amla, a Partner at the New York-based financial services firm, has several key responsibilities: He leads the North American region, Human Capital worldwide, India and his latest job description is New York regional sales lead. Ask him which one is his priority and he'll tell you all of them. Seriously. His increasing responsibility coincides with Capco's recent strategy refresh that includes—among other things—a more client-centric approach, enhanced domain depth and better alignment between employees and the overall strategy. Consulting One-on-One caught up recently with Amla to discuss his many roles at the firm, the ever-changing state of the financial services market, talent, and the firm's recent strategy refresh.
Consulting: So, it's probably a bit of an understatement to say that you wear many hats.
Amla: These are the areas of consulting I enjoy. It's why I came to Capco from Accenture; I joined to be able to play a big part in creating the corporate culture at a growing firm.
