The board mentoring scheme aims to accelerate the appointment of more women into board positions as well as enhancing diversity and inclusion in public-listed companies (PLCs).
The scheme, which was launched in 2017,聽brings together experienced board directors as聽mentors聽and aspiring board-ready women under an umbrella with a focus on professional and personal development.
The scheme helps to develop a broader pipeline of board-ready women candidates to be considered for board positions as well as raise their visibility and enhance their profiles among PLCs. Besides gaining clarity, building courage and confidence, participating in this scheme will lead to enhanced leadership capabilities to succeed in a diverse environment in their current workplace.
Through the聽mentors鈥� involvement in this scheme, it is our aim that聽mentors聽will advocate more gender-diverse boardrooms.
Since its inception, more than 80 experienced board members 聽have supported the board聽mentoring聽scheme and, many women candidates have become board directors at both listed and non listed companies.
How it works
The scheme runs for nine months.
To be part of this scheme, the candidate needs to be assessed as board ready by LeadWomen or The Institute of Corporate Directors Malaysia (ICDM). Then, the mentee will be assigned to a mentor, who is a board member.
During this period, the mentee needs to initiate at least three meetings with their respective聽mentors聽with each meeting lasting between one to two hours. The respective聽mentors聽will share experience and provide guidance to the selected mentees in key areas that are necessary to succeed in board positions. Where the opportunity arise, the聽mentors聽may introduce the mentees to others board members with the aim of expanding the mentees鈥� network.
The mentees also benefit from networking amongst themselves, share knowledge and learn from each other during the 9 month journey. At the conclusion of the 9 months, feedbacks are gathered from both the mentors and mentees to further improve the scheme.
