So, you think you can become a Managing Director? ( A Perspective by Nik Zafri)

This flow is as a result from interviews conducted with several Managing Directors across various industries, ranging from Small and Medium Enterprises, MNC to Public Listed Companies. Please also note that work delegation is also involved in this flow.

It's important to note that in the Malaysian context, the hierarchy and structure may vary, with the C-Suite potentially including the Board of Directors or Shareholders themselves or appointed by the Board, provided their roles, responsibilities and authorities are clearly delineated in resolutions to uphold effective governance practices.

I would like to extend my gratitude to the Managing Directors who generously participated in this survey. May their experiences serve as a valuable reference for other Managing Directors as well.
