Meeting Theme:- Leadership
A global study by Catalyst showed that women held only 29% of senior management roles in 2019. Female board representation is low in Asia, with females making only 2.6% of the board seats in South Korea and 15.2% in Singapore. However, Malaysian women today make up 33% of positions in senior management teams within companies in the country, a Grant Thornton International Business Report has found. According to the report, Malaysia has seen positive gains of 10 percentage points from last year and is the highest since 2007. What does “leadership” mean to you? Do you consider yourself a leader? What are some of the qualities of a great leader? As a woman, are there more barriers to leadership? Sheryl Sandberg once said, “Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in our absence.”
