About ICEE and ISO Human Capital Standards

ICEE offers preparation and certification programs for ISO Human Capital certifications, including ISO 30414 human capital management internal and external reporting guidelines, ISO 10018 quality people management, ISO 10667 assessment service, ISO 30405 recruitment, and ISO 30409 for knowledge management. ICEE ISO certification includes individual professionals (auditors and developers); organizations (employers and solution providers), and technology platforms that help support implementation of the standards.

In his role, Mubarik will oversee outreach and development efforts through webinars, social media, and public speaking to advocate for the use of more strategic and systematic approaches to the way organizations manage all their people, employees, customers, distribution partners, vendors, and communities, as well as investors. Mubarik’s company, HR Metrics, was recently named head of the ICEE affiliate program in six countries, meaning that his organization will also manage the examination and audit organization being developed to serve this part of the world. HR Metrics is a leading human capital metrics advisory firm based in Islamabad, Pakistan, headed by Mubarik, a senior-level SHRM-certificated practitioner, whose company has international clients.

Time to Benefit from the Compelling ROI

Explains Mubarik, “Human capital analytics we have conducted in so many circumstances support the hypothesis that a strategic and systematic approach to engaging people in the goals of the enterprise, rather than taking the all-too-typical reactive and ad hoc approach, will yield more sustainable performance and better experiences for all interested parties. ISO standards are designed to provide a roadmap for a more efficient, rational and sustainable way of managing people and processes.”

HR Metrics, which was founded by Mubarik, provides training, human capital performance measurement, benchmarking and technology to support the better application of global analytics. His company is the international partner in Pakistan for SHRM (Society of Human Resource Management) certification/recertification programs and has facilitated certification courses for hundreds of HR professionals. His company received “Top International SHRM Learning System Partner Award” for four consecutive years in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Dr. Ron McKinley, both co-founder of ICEE and of the original ISO working group for human resource standards, explains, “Due to his expertise and relationships, Zahid Mubarik and his firm are ideally suited to lead the expansion of ISO standards education and certification. He has dedicated himself to the ISO human capital standards from the very start with a diligence and focus on quality that is precisely the brand we wish to build throughout the world. We could not have found anyone more qualified than Zahid and his organization to lead this effort.”

Adds Lee S. Webster, also co-founder of ICEE and of the original ISO working group for human resource standards, “Not only does Zahid bring the integrity, commitment, and perseverance required for introducing this new concept of enterprise engagement and standards into human capital management, he has a deep understanding of the education and experience involved and the distinction between ISO certifications and those of SHRM. One of his critical roles will be helping the human resources world throughout the world understand how ISO certifications help elevate the field by capitalizing on the shift from human resources to human capital that we have talked about for years but have not accomplished. ISO human capital certifications and standards focus on the management of specific practices that, when conducted in a strategic and systematic way, better align organizational goals with the actions of all stakeholders needed to achieve them.”
