Recently, NayaJeevan and doctHERs collaborated with each other as both
companies announced Khaqan Sikander as their joint CEO, effective
November 1st, 2019.
Hamariweb interviewed Khaqan Sikander to know about the key aspects of
his personal and professional life and, his plans for taking Naya Jeevan
and doctHERs to a new high. The services and contribution of Naya Jeevan
and doctHERs in the health sector of Pakistan are also discussed.
When talking about Khaqan Sikander, he is a man who has great global
exposure. He did almost everything that usually seems difficult for the
masses. From traveling the whole world, working in conflict zones,
surviving an intense war, and living in refugee camps, he emerged as a
winner in all these situations. He has also written a book, started a
company, and managed the nationally televised crises.

Khaqan Sikander has read several key subjects such as management,
creative writing, economics, diplomacy, and different foreign languages
from France and the United States. The execution of SDG focused projects
with the United Nations is also his key accomplishment. He also served
as the member Board of Directors (health) and General Manager at the
Aman Foundation. However, Khaqan Sikander’s diversified portfolio became
a key reason for his selection as the CEO of both NayaJeevan and
doctHERs.
NayaJeevan offers effective health and wellness solution for
organizations and their staff. They have collaboration with different
multinational corporations (MNCs) and they are doing a great job by
offering health and wellness plans to the low-income stakeholders.
However, the plan is usually co-financed by NayaJeevan's corporate
partners.

In a short span of time, they succeeded to gain the trust of big giants
such as Unilever, Friesland Campina (Engro Foods), Shell and RB and
became their trusted insurance provider.
On the other side, doctHERs is a perfect example of women empowerment.
It is the digital health platform that utilizes the skills of most
talented female doctors to meet the requirement s of health consumers
through telemedicine or any other nurse assisted technology.
doctHERs operates on a great working model. They recruit, equip and
train female frontline workers such as lady health workers, midwives,
nurses and later deploy them in corporate offices, factories, etc.
However, these workers perform diagnosis and treatment under the
supervision of remotely located highly qualified female doctors.

In just around a year, doctHERs positively impacted the lives of over a
million people. On the other side, it is also inducted in into the
Million Lives Club, a global initiative supported by the Global
Innovation Fund. However, the club acknowledges social entrepreneurs and
innovators who are transforming the lives of people living on less than
$5 per day.
It is a great sign for the Pakistani health sector that both NayaJeevan
and doctHERs will work together and will deliver the health and wellness
solutions to the public and private sector. We can expect that both
these companies will flourish under the supervision and leadership of
Khaqan Sikander.
