Flashback - ACCA Student Conference 2012: Highlight #3

   Fire Eating: Breakthrough to Success
This talk is to enlighten the participants with a set of catalysts that can shape themselves into an effective leader. To be a successful leader, we need 3Cs (Character, Competency and Courage).

  • Character
    • The inward motivation to do what is right in every situation. Jim Collins in his book 'Good to Great' shows the pyramid of leadership. The pyramid started with a 'High Capable Individual' followed by 'Competent Team Member', 'Competent Leader', 'Effective Leader' and the last and most important Level 5 leadership are 'Personal Humility' and 'Professional Will'.
  • Competency
    • Refers to functional, personal, leadership and domain mastery within ourselves. We must equipped with learning agility so that we can close our competency gap between reality and our vision.
  • Courage
    • Talking about changing and breaking through our current comfort zone to achieve another level of proficiency and competency. At the end of this talk, we were asked to 'eat fire' in front of people.

Flashback - ACCA Student Conference 2012: Highlight #2

    Panel Discussion: Ultimate Taboos at Workplace
Participants were enriched by a panel discussion of all Big Four accounting firm, talking about the ultimate taboos at workplace. Generation Y nowadays is being classified as the person who is self-centered and used to have a lot of enjoyment which will cause troubles when they step into complex and intriguing society in near future. Hence, Gen Ys are advised to be patience and not to request something that is unrealistic in return, said Ms. Lee Sue Chuen who is the People, Performance and Culture Director at KPMG.

   In relation to Gen Y's attitude, partner of Ernst & Young, Ms. Lee Soo Fern advised us not to job-hop so much. We should build our career and accumulate our career equity. Also, Mr Alex Lee, HR Director from Deloitte advised us not to get distracted from our responsibilities by social media. In short, companies love Gen Y's vibrancy and flexibility, however, we should be more realistic about our career expectation, said Mr. Chan Chong Kong, Executive Director of PwC Malaysia.
