Building a people-first future, with Santam Executive Head of Human Capital Norah Sehunoe
What does it really take to become an employer of choice in a world where employees want purpose, balance, growth and belonging? In this episode of the CHRO South Africa podcast, we sit down with Norah Sehunoe, Executive Head of Human Capital at Santam, one of the country’s most trusted insurers, to unpack exactly that.
Norah shares how Santam is creating a truly people-first culture, empowering employees to grow, and building a workplace that is inclusive, future-ready and anchored in purpose. From the organisation’s employee value proposition to the leadership principles that guide her own journey, she offers thoughtful insights into cultivating environments where people feel heard, supported, and able to thrive.
She also explores the lessons HR leaders can draw from Santam’s approach to culture, leadership, development and belonging and how these shape the company’s standing as an employer of choice.
