Baiduri Bank hosted its third annual Leadership Forum at the Baiduri Community Space, Baiduri Bank Headquarters yesterday, reinforcing its commitment to developing a culture of excellence and innovation.

As a flagship employee development initiative of Baiduri Bank Group, the one-day Leadership Forum seeks to enhance leadership competencies across the organisation by promoting collaboration and shared learning among its leaders and people managers. This year, the forum emphasised empowering leaders to cultivate high-performing teams in response to the complexities of a rapidly evolving financial landscape, all while embodying Baiduri Bank’s core values of Trustworthiness, Inclusivity, Empathy, and an Enterprising spirit.

John Tse Tow Joon Chung, a certified leadership coach from John TT Consulting, delivered a session on leadership transformation, offering practical insights into fostering leadership growth and adaptability.

Throughout the day, participants explored key themes, including self-awareness and situational awareness, the importance of values and vision in leadership, and an introduction to the new Leadership Circle model. The event also included a panel discussion addressing leadership challenges and strengths, as well as informal breakout sessions for managers to share their experiences and engage in discussions on key leadership topics.

Reflecting on the significance of the event, Mr. Ti Eng Hui, CEO of Baiduri Bank, stated, “Investing in our leaders is investing in the future of Baiduri Bank. By cultivating strong leadership skills and fostering an environment of collaboration, we not only enhance our organisational performance but also empower our teams to achieve their fullest potential.”
