Micro and small businesses (MSMEs) in Malaysia are vital to the economy, making up more than 95% of businesses, contributing 38% to the nation’s annual GDP, and employing more than 7 million Malaysians. Yet the sector is also the one that struggles the most during tough times, as highlighted during the recent lockdowns that saw thousands of small businesses cease operations.

While external factors play a role, leadership often determines the success and longevity of a business, especially small and medium businesses founded on passion and vision, and led by solo entrepreneurs or small teams operating on limited resources and budget. The quality of leadership has a bigger impact in smaller organisations than in larger companies with established structures and teams.

The PLF SME Leaders Programme 2022 highlights successful leadership traits and practices among MSME leaders while at the same time facilitating knowledge and idea-sharing for mutual enrichment. The programme also features information sessions on the support and aid available to the MSME sector. This event will pack CEO Spotlights, Breakout Sessions, and Info Briefs into a unique one-day in-person programme in Putrajaya.

Admission is free but seats are limited.
