Telecommunications giant MTN on Friday announced the immediate appointment of Saim Yaksan as executive for group transformation, following the launch of holistic transformation programme Ignite in the third quarter of 2016.
Yaksan will be tasked with the development and execution of special initiatives to accelerate business and financial performance under Ignite, which will be progressively rolled out to other operations after its establishment in South Africa and Nigeria.
“The measures will make the organisation more agile and the business more sustainable, efficient, innovative and profitable,” MTN said in a statement on Friday.
Yaksan, former supply chain management executive in MTN Group’s procurement department, will be supported by Debbie Minnaar and Olubayo Adekanmbi, who will lead transformation offices in South Africa and Nigeria respectively.
