Miskyah Toth is the epitome of a successful self-starter. Her journey is one of resilience and a true inspiration to budding entrepreneurs. Miskyah stands among South Africa’s best and brightest business leaders, and her company, Business Directive Contract Services (BDCS), empowers the country’s workforce, bolsters its economy, and enhances the worldwide business landscape.
BDCS is a staff outsourcing company which provides a comprehensive suite of human resources services. Its staffing solutions include recruitment, onboarding, training, payroll, and disciplinary action management. Under Miskyah’s vision, it’s focused on easing the HR workflow for businesses, allowing them to focus on strategy and providing the best possible service. CEO Miskyah is the driving force behind BDCS, instilling the business with her spirit of entrepreneurship, resilience, and dedication. As a prominent woman in business, she has released an award-winning autobiography, Iron in Silk, which details her struggles and path to success.
Through BDCS’s sister organisation, miskyah.com, she provides mentoring and coaching to improve entrepreneurial skills. Miskyah.com also includes its Women 4 Change campaign which celebrates the achievements of extraordinary women. It aims to amplify the voices of women who are affecting positive change in their communities and beyond. It serves as a beacon of support, inspiring women worldwide to pursue their unique journeys and change the world.
Miskyah’s company is headquartered in Cape Town and spans 50 locations across South Africa, and plans for expansion extend to Africa and the rest of the world. Its 12-month plan will bring BDCS’s services to new horizons, benefitting the global business landscape. It offers white-collar and blue-collar staffing services, primarily to large organisations, but it also services medium-sized corporations. The company is a prime example of a business fuelled by its values, and Miskyah explains that these are “integrity, servant leadership, passion, and empowerment.” Taking ownership of decisions, roles, and day-to-day tasks is encouraged, meaning every employee understands their part and plays it with pride, ensuring that BDCS achieves its objectives smoothly.
As the company goes forward, it will continue to participate in international summits, such as the Global Summit for Women in Madrid. Miskyah attended in May of 2024. In all the company does, it’s investing in South Africa, seeking new ways to provide essential services to the world market. Miskyah and the team are keen to show the world what the country has to offer. Its model is based on carefully employing the right person for the right position, deciding this through a well-considered recruitment and testing processes. It aims to satisfy businesses, stakeholders, and recruits with every new person it appoints.
The company is a platinum partner of the Future of HR Conference and looks forward to engaging with visionary minds in HR and discussing what AI can bring to the industry’s future. Through its expansion efforts and engagement with events such as these, the company will increase its presence on the global stage, informing the HR space as much as it listens and takes on board others’ contributions. “South Africa has many highly skilled individuals with much to offer global business. Often, before we can place a suitable person in the correct job, the individual must present themselves as the best solution to the organisation.”
BDCS is a close-knit team, and it’s proud to operate as a “tribe,” committed to mutual support for all its staff, continuous training, and new life experiences. It takes market trends in stride, evolving its technologies constantly, and even looking forward to advancing its AI implementation. The business is considered a thought leader in the employment and AI industry, and it wears this accolade proudly. Between Miskyah’s extraordinary stewardship, a highly effective and adaptable business model, and precisely the right team, it’s clear that BDCS is in visionary hands. The industry of human resources in South Africa benefits from its presence constantly, and more client’s year-on-year will experience continued success thanks to its staffing efforts.
