Jakarta. IDN Founder and Chief Executive Officer Winston Utomo was named the most people-focused CEO at the 2025 Human Resources Excellence Awards.

From the beginning, Winston Utomo has believed that organizational success is determined not only by systems or strategies, but by the mutual trust, caring, and space given to each Timmy. He embodies this philosophy through an authentic and personal approach, from cross-division coffee chats and town hall sessions to direct involvement in every new employee onboarding process. Through initiatives such as the Timmy Happiness Index (THI), MyJourney, and the IDN Academy, Winston Utomo ensures that every Timmy has the opportunity to grow professionally and emotionally.
This award was also warmly welcomed by the IDN People Operations team, which has been a key driver in maintaining an inclusive and empowering work culture.
"Winston Utomo's leadership has been instrumental in shaping the people-first culture at IDN. He leads with empathy, trust, and genuine care -- values that continue to inspire us to create a work environment where every Timmy feels supported, valued, and empowered to grow," said Risa Karmila, Head of People Operations at IDN.
