  30% Club Malaysia

  Are there differences in the leadership DNA of female and male leaders?

  "Regardless of gender, there are 4 fundamental traits of a leader - higher level of self-awareness, learning agility, skills to influence and communication skills."
  
  "Be gender blind even with yourself and you'll find out more often than not they will treat you equally."
  
  "Its crucial to have an open mindset and be receptive."

  Fireside chat with CEO MSWG

  30% Club Malaysia

  The Influence Pillar of 30% Club Malaysia was privileged to have an online fireside chat with Mr Devanesan Evanson on 23 October, where we drew his views as CEO of the Minority Shareholders Watch Group (MSWG) regarding Board-related matters, including diversity and inclusion.
  
  The Influence Pillar was represented by Datuk Zunaidah Idris, Datin Sunita Rajakumar, Ilham Sunhaji (MBA), Nirmala Doraisamy, CGMA, FCMA, CA(M), Karpana Somasundram, and Susan Sha, while Pushpa Nair moderated the session.
  
  On getting Boards to have a minimum of 30% women, Devanesan explained that MSWG will vote against a new male member on an all-male Board. Although MSWG’s shareholding is small, this is a matter of principle. MSWG also questions boards at AGMs on their inability to get at least 1 woman on board.
  
  While some countries mandate female representation at Boards, Malaysia has a principle-based Recommendation on gender diversity in the Code of Corporate Governance. In terms of effectiveness, MSWG finds naming and shaming is effective to encourage compliance.
  
  The Influence Pillar thanks Mr Devanesan for sharing his views and agreeing to be our influencer to support and improve D&I in the Investors Community.

  Development Digest: Maximising Knowledge for Development

  World Bank Publication Issue 4

  Women on Boards in Malaysia
  Using firm-level data for 806 public-listed companies in Malaysia, we highlight the extent of women’s participation as board members in Malaysia benchmarked against other countries.

  How this women’s participation varies by industry and firm-size is considered, along with its potential impact on the company’s performance.

  About 13 percent of the board positions in Malaysia filled by women and the rest by men in 2017. Moreover, the trend over the last four years reveals a slow pace of increase in the proportion of women board members.

  The largest 100 firms and some industries such as finance show a greater tendency to have female vs. male board members. The profit rate is significantly positively correlated with proportionately more female board members in a firm, suggesting a “business case” for more women on the boards.

  30% Club Malaysia Official Launch

  Kuala Lumpur Convention Center

What is the 30% Club and its mission?

Why 30% (not more)?

Isn’t 30% an implied quota?

If it’s not mandated by law, what are the chances of you reaching the 30% target?

Does the 30% target not undermine women’s ability to get on boards on merit? Isn’t this positive discrimination towards women?
