Malaysia is taking action to correct this imbalance and has set a target of minimum 30% women in senior decision-making positions and corporate boards by year 2016.
A Women Directors Onboarding Training Programme 2014 starts this month.
The programme is in its third year running, to prepare potential and qualified women for directorship roles in Malaysian public-listed companies.
The first year saw 220 women accordingly trained plus 500 more trained in 2013. Are you among the trainees this year?
The programme is fully funded and organised by NAM Institute for the Empowerment of Women (NIEW) - a training, research and knowledge management agency under the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development.
Those who have successfully undergone the training get listed at the Women Corporate Directors' Registry, which assists in the placement of board-ready candidates.
Are You Game?
The programme requires that you are female, a Malaysian citizen, age 45 and above, degree holder or professional qualification like LLB, ACCA, etc, and hold senior management post in PLC, GLC, NGO or are entrepreneurs holding post of CEO, CIO, COO, CFO and the likes.
NAWEM receives invitation to attend the training and its participants last year included our Penang chairperson Wendy. "It is beneficial and a great experience even if you don't intend to become an independent director," she said.
One gets to understand the culture of the male-dominated boards, experience board simulation through case studies, join panel discussion with experienced directors, and go through third-party assessment of board readiness, she added.
