Industrial Visit to Leaderonomics

On the 21st March 2014, Sunway CPA Australia Student Charter (SCSC) had successfully organised an industrial visit for Sunway students to Leaderonomics. The SCSC members had devoted a lot of effort in ensuring that this event will run smoothly. Besides that, special thanks to Leaderonomics for their cooperation as well as their generosity for hosting this visit.


Leaderonomics is a social enterprise with a sole purpose of transforming nations through leadership development. Their vision is to seek to nurture people into leaders, develop affectionate communities, and transform human societies. It is centred on helping everyone to build their leadership capabilities and helping them to grow into community leaders that make a difference in the world. They strongly believe that leadership will help transform communities and societies into a better, fairer and more caring society.

During the visit, Leaderonomics welcomed us with joyful arms and led us to their main office. The staff-in-charge, Ms Nadia guided us around their office for a tour to which the participants were fascinated about the office’s surroundings and atmosphere of the other staff members doing their work. Furthermore, the speakers of this company, Mr Andrew Lau and Ms Ang Hui Ming generously provided the students with many helpful information and knowledge about their victorious company.






After the short briefing, Leaderonomics has  kindly prepared a satisfying lunch, i.e. Domino’s Pizza for us to fill our tummies. After lunch, some special activities was arranged for us and we were then broken down into groups. One of the activities was a task given on how to secure sponsorship to fund our projects to be carried out for the youths in Leaderonomics’ Community Centre. All of us truly enjoyed the games and had a good time in brainstorming the ideas. The activities has certainly amplified students’ soft skills such as communication skills, conflict resolution, strategic thinking, team building, creative problem solving and etc. At the end of the visit, SCSC (along with our dearest lecturer, Ms Anita) presented a basket of fruits as a token of appreciation to the head manager of Leaderonomics, Mr Andrew Lau.








In conclusion, the objective of this field trip was achieved, i.e. to provide Sunway students with an insight knowledge of the business world. Positive feedbacks were given by majority of the participants while negative feedback was noted down to improve our next industrial visit. Once again, SCSC would like to thank Leaderonomics for this knowledgeable and yet memorable visit; and of course, not forgetting our supportive participants who have been very sporting in this visit. :)
