Venkkat Ramanan, FCMA, CGMA, Vice President of Asia Pacific, at AICPA & CIMA, together as the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants, said:

“In today’s uncertain and complex business world, organisations need leaders with skills and capabilities different from those that enabled them to succeed in the past. This rapidly changing landscape demands that we foster leaders with innovative thinking, resilience, and forward-looking approach to business strategy.

“At AICPA & CIMA, we are committed to supporting future accounting, finance, and business leaders to develop the mindset, knowledge, and skills they need to stand out and propel their organisations forward. We have designed the programme of this year’s CGMA Leadership Academy with this in mind, ensuring that attendees walk away with actionable insights and elite leadership skills to accelerate and lead in an ever-evolving business world.”
