CEO Masterclass Sabah 2024 At the recent CEO Masterclass Sabah 2024 event, co-organized by SYBIL and MICCI Sabah, Datuk Adzmir Abd Rahman, the Chief Executive Officer of SEC, was invited to join a panel alongside other prominent industry leaders in Malaysia. During the discussion on “Redefining the Rules of the Game in a Changing Landscape,” Datuk Adzmir shared his corporate journey, perspectives, challenges, and insights, particularly in the energy sector. Reflecting on his career trajectory, Datuk Adzmir illustrated the essence of perseverance, climbing from an Assistant Mill Manager at Sawit Kinabalu in 1998 to his current role as SEC’s CEO in 2022. His journey is a testament to the importance of adaptability, a trait he emphasized as essential in today’s rapidly changing business environment. Key Takeaways Adaptability and Flexibility: Datuk Adzmir highlighted the critical need for businesses to adapt and be flexible in their models. He cited how a strategic adjustment in SEC’s business model significantly boosted profitability, underscoring that agility is key to staying competitive. This mirrors his perspective on human capital as a strategic asset, where selecting and nurturing the right team is pivotal for any organization's success. Technology as an Enabler: While many top executives have traditionally overlooked technology, Datuk Adzmir stressed that the paradigm has shifted. SEC leverages technology not just for operational efficiency but as a driver for innovation, safety, and agility. Notably, SEC’s digitalization efforts have ensured a 94% uptime in energy delivery, demonstrating how technology enhances service reliability. Innovative Solutions in Energy Delivery: SEC has been at the forefront of innovation, pioneering the adoption of CNG-VPS in 2013 to extend gas supply beyond KKIP and later scaling this solution to LNG-VPS in 2019, bringing gas to industries on Sabah’s East Coast. Additionally, SEC’s foray into renewable energy and feasibility studies on wind energy, despite geographical challenges, underscores the company’s commitment to sustainability and diversification. Human Capital as a Strategic Asset: Datuk Adzmir emphasized that the success of any organization lies in assembling and nurturing the right team, highlighting human capital as a cornerstone of SEC’s strategy. Datuk Adzmir concluded his discussion with a piece of wisdom that, while seemingly simple, carries profound implications: the importance of perseverance, commitment, discipline, resilience, and the ability to overcome challenges. “Always finish what you’ve started” Later in the evening, Tan Sri Dato Sri Vincent Tan, the founder and advisor of the Berjaya Corporation Berhad, a prominent Malaysian conglomerate delivers his Keynote Address to the audience. He also took the time to visit SEC booth set up outside the conference hall, acknowledging the company’s contributions to the energy sector. #SabahEnergyCorporation #CEOMasterclass
