Human capital impact path
The human capital impact path is a visual representation of how our efforts to enhance human capital connect to the future vision of CANADE, from the company's perspective of strategic HR and the employees' perspective of employee narratives. It also shows how achieving this vision strengthens human capital—the source of value creation—and creates a virtuous cycle of corporate and individual growth that ultimately leads to the realization of Mizuho’s Purpose.
Our human capital KPIs are the indicators used to track the implementation and outcomes of these initiatives. Based on these KPIs, we will evaluate progress and review measures in a timely and appropriate manner.
