| Abstract: | It is the interest of the researchers to find how the benchmarking of the future leaders is
done in the Government-linked Companies GLCs. A mixed method approach has been selected
as the research strategy to study the issues under investigation and the relationship between them.
Six interviews with prominent experts are carried out to gather the items for the questionnaire.
Then sets of constructed questionnaire are distributed to the managerial staff of Universiti
Malaysia Perlis as a pilot study. To gather the data from GLCs, three Government-linked
Investment Companies (GLICs) and fifteen GLCs have been identified as the samples. Then an
interview with a prominent statesman is carried out, and a focus group discussion with the top
management representatives are conducted to support the survey. The findings of the study
indicate that the choice for future leadership dimensions are traits, behaviours, performance
functions, competence, skills and background. These six leadership dimensions qualities are
desired in GLCs as the future leaders are expected to use their best endeavours to prompt or
reshape the organizations. |
