“As Optiven, we were impressed by the COYA
awards in Safari Park. Everything was planned
very well. The awarding was transparent and very
authentic; You get an Award after one year
rigorous checks on key organization performance
Indicators based on 7 determinants Such as
Leadership, HR Focus, Financial Management,
Innovation and ICT, Customer Orientation and
Marketing, production and output and Corporate
citizenship. The team leaders are also trained on
how to take the participating companies through
the process and before you get an award, the
learning is more than what you get in an MBA. The
logistics was just amazing and the event was
excellent. I urge many other such organizations to
learn from KIM. As Optiven, We shall keep
partnering with KIM and we urge all SMES we
