Leadership Talk 09'

I am more afraid of an army of 100 sheep led by a lion than an army of 100 lions led by a sheep.
Talleyrand

On September 11th 2009, Leaders' Club of Taylor's University College organized our very first Leadership Talk with the aim of promoting leadership skills. The event is pretty straightforward; our motive is to invite Malaysian leaders to spare a few minutes of their hectic life and inspire us with their leadership stories and past experiences.

What's more than to invite the present chairman of Malaysian Industrial Development Authority(MIDA) who was also formerly the director-general of the Economic Planning Unit (EPU). It was indeed an honor to have YAB Tan Sri Sulaiman Mahbob to be the man of the day.

A brief background information of our speaker; Tan Sri Sulaiman was the secretariat for the National Economic Action Council (NEAC), which is a government consultative body that was set up at the height of the 1997 Asian financial crisis. Its purpose is to draft and coordinate measures to counter the severe economic problems faced by Malaysia and other Asian countries.

The event kick started at 11am and ended at 12pm. Everything was executed as planned and it was a breeze. The audience was very supportive and participative. A big thumbs up for their passion and interest!

Lastly, we would like to bid our sincere thanks and gratitude to the following for gracing this event.

• The very humble Tan Sri Sulaiman for his time
  
• Vice chancellor of TUC Prof Dato Dr Hassan

• ECA advisors-Mr Ronson, Mr Albert, Ms Elaine and Ms Shirley for their guidance and great support
