21 September 2026 – Digital transformation is not a strategy exercise. It is a test of leadership.
Today, the graduates of EDLP Cohort 13 rose to that test, presenting their Organisational Digital Transformation Plans as the culmination of months of deep learning, honest reflection, and the kind of peer collaboration that only emerges when exceptional leaders share the same room.
What set this cohort apart was their commitment – senior leaders from across industries and the public sector, including MyDIGITAL Corporation, who chose not just to champion change, but to lead it from within.
The programme concluded with closing remarks from Dr. Christina Yeo Ken Yin, Undersecretary of the Digital Acculturation Division, Ministry of Digital, reaffirming EDLP’s role in shaping Malaysia’s digital leadership agenda.
This is where the future of Malaysian digital leadership is being built.
