Jammu and Kashmir Bank Chairman and CEO Parvez Ahmed on Saturday inaugurated the bank’s guest house at Friends Colony, New Delhi.
The spokesman in a statement said that inauguration of the state-of-the-art guest house was performed in presence of Executive Presidents, P K Tickoo and R K Chibber, President Abdul Rashid Shegan, Zonal Head Delhi (North) Fayaz Siddiqui, Vice Presidents and other senior officers of the bank. Built upon a sprawling plot of land and christened as ‘JK Bank House’, the guest house is a subtle manifestation of the bank’s brand image that will continue to reflect and send a message across.
“There are two aspects that define the legacy of organizations. The Physical Infrastructure and the human capital. Physical Infrastructure is the primary aspect which conveys immediate presence of a Brand. It is like the first impression of an organization.” said Parvez Ahmed, Chairman & CEO, JK Bank after inaugurating the Guest House.
The Chairman said, “The best institutions strive to create best assets and the intent behind this exercise is what message we want to spread across as to who we are! Our preferences speak volumes especially in a customer-centric business where we meticulously plan and strategize ways to up our Brand visibility and image. So this guest house will stand to continuously speak on behalf of us and create a positive impact for the Bank.”
“It makes a lot of economic sense today to strengthen our physical infrastructure as such investments keep on adding to our capital besides being in congruence with the practice of strong banks across the globe”, he added.
Meanwhile, taking forward its succession planning process at an unprecedented pace, J&K Bank today promoted its 578 Executives to Senior Executive level.
Only a month ago, the bank had promoted around 800 officers in Associate Executive cadre besides elevating Presidents, Vice-Presidents and Assistant Vice Presidents.
“During the last few months, we have seen more promotions than have happened over the last many years. For us the career progression of dedicated officers and workman staff is the single most important element of organizational health,” commented Chairman and CEO Parvez Ahmed on the occasion.
