Preparing Future Women Directors: Deloitte Malaysia’s Board-Ready Women Program 2024

Deloitte Malaysia’s Board-Ready Women Program (BRW) welcomed its 2024 cohort in July. In collaboration with the 30% Club Malaysia, Boardroom Malaysia and Institute of Corporate Directors Malaysia (ICDM), the program aims to prepare and position aspiring women directors for the boardroom. The program comprises 4 modules, from July to October 2024.

Module 1 covered fundamental concepts of the boardroom and key considerations before starting out on the board journey. The 30% Club Malaysia Steering Committee member, Marzida Mohd Noor, was invited to share her candid views and personal stories on taking that first step into the boardroom during a panel discussion.

This was followed by Module 2, an exciting boardroom simulation which was recently concluded in August. The session simulated a typical board meeting which was chaired by Tan Sri Abdul Wahid Omar, Chairman, Bursa Malaysia.

As we drive towards parity and gender diversity in the boardroom, the 30% Club Malaysia is proud to be a collaborator of the BRW Program.
