Moin Haque, Head of Enterprise Data, Analytics & AI at IFF, emphasizes the importance of synthesizing information to make informed decisions. He notes that data is a key ingredient in fueling growth and innovation, but its value lies not just in its quantity, but also in how it's combined with processes, people, and business objectives. Haque stresses the need for intentional data collection, processing, and integration to unlock meaningful insights. He also highlights the balance between innovation and governance, noting that AI is a powerful tool that requires careful consideration of its impact on core operational fundamentals. Moin Haque identifies three essential skills for effective leadership in fostering resilience and growth: empathy, adaptability (entropy), and efficacy, which prioritize people-first approaches, flexibility, and meaningful outcomes over perfection.
