Assalamualaikum w.b.t,

Dear all IIUM staff,

MGAC is an international case competition. During the first competition, MGAC received more than 1,000 applicants from six countries across Asia. MGAC is so much more than a case challenge. It is an immersive experience designed to bring out the best in its participants by testing their limits, expanding their skillsets, and helping them realise their potential. MGAC experience extends to non-traditional challenges such as amazing race, CSR, strategy-based games, marketing pitch etc. A game whereby everyone is welcomed to participate, regardless of your educational background. Tough decisions and interesting problems give every participant a unique MGAC journey, where every decision matter.

The challenge also tested the participants’ financial and non-financial knowledge, challenging them beyond academic excellence by requiring them to convince the judges on the viability of their ‘company’ and its ‘products’.

Speaking at the MGAC2018 event, Maybank’s Group Chief Human Capital Officer, Mdm Nora Manaf said,

“MGAC acts as a platform to spot, build and nurture diverse global talents and equip them with the competitive edge they require to excel and compete in this new age which is full of expectations with diverse needs and requirements….From a national standpoint, we also feel the need to foster and develop our local talents enabling them to compete among their peers in the international arena in hopes to adapt and thrive in the 4.0 New World Revolution.”

This time MGAC extends its challenge to IIUM staff, to give them a sneak-preview and glimpse of MGAC-like situation. Thus, we are calling for those who are interested from among academic and administrative staff to join our Maybank GO Ahead Challenge (MGAC) IIUM staff series to embark on exciting games and problem-solving situations to challenge your skills and readiness to react under different situations.
