Malaysia’s MINDA and CA Sri Lanka in fresh bid to build high-performing directors

In an effort to enhance the effectiveness of directors in the region, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Sri Lanka (CA Sri Lanka) has joined hands with the Malaysian Directors Academy (MINDA) to offer directors from Sri Lanka and the region unique tailormade courses to help them become high-performing directors.

The ‘Building High Performance Directors 2.0 (BHPD)’ program, organised by MINDA and supported by CA Sri Lanka, offers three specially designed courses aimed at building effective and dynamic directors who can perform at consistently high standards with a focus on entrepreneurship, innovation and value creation. 

The program, which kicks off on 31 October, is being created for the benefit of experienced board members who wish to broaden their knowledge and strengthen their effectiveness. The directors have the option of choosing from three unique tailormade courses, based on their professional requirements. 

The lead faculty will comprise Dr. Randel S. Carlock and Ravi Chaudhry. 

Dr. Carlock brings more than 25 years of leadership experience to the table and is well-known for his research and expertise on entrepreneurship and family business based on his experience as a CEO, Chairman, Management Professor, Consultant and Psychotherapist. Dr. Carlock, who teaches at INSEAD, is also an author and has co-authored several books, articles, chapters and case studies. 

Chaudhry is the Founder Chairman of CeNext Consulting and Investment Ltd. based in New Delhi. A strategy consultant to corporations and governments, he is also a civil society mentor to CEOs, corporate boards and intellectuals. Chaudhry specialises in strategy, audit and realignment to bridge the gap. 

He also serves as Chairman of four companies in the Tata Group of India. 

The MINDA mooted program is offered as three options. 

Option 1 is BHPD 2.0: Up-Close and Personal with Mr. Ravi Chaudhry, Option 2 is BHPD 2.0: Up-Close and Personal with Dr. Randel Carlock and Option 3 is BHPD 2.0 on Dynamic Board Stewardship. 

They will be held from 31 October-3 November on the theme ‘Addressing the corporate governance expectations of the 21st Century’ and will be conducted by both Dr. Carlock and Mr. Chaudhry.
