About this Event

Masterclass: Perspectives on Management, Leadership and Economics


This event is a must-attend for anyone interested in gaining valuable insights into the world of management, leadership, and economics. Join us at CDC Management Development (M) Sdn Bhd for an evening filled with engaging discussions, interactive session, and networking opportunities.

The Masterclass will discuss new perspectives on management and leadership including DOPE vs EPIC strategies, DEI management and the role of ESG and Sustainability. Just how important are these agendas in modern management? Should we take them on face value or not? Do these approaches add value or distract managers from the business of business? How do we show genuine and authentic leadership on these issues beyond virtue-signalling and lip-service? What is the role of economic analysis in helping us navigate through these issues?
