Global headlines have once again put powerful individuals under scrutiny, raising broader questions about accountability at the very top.

In this episode, we explore CEO misconduct in Malaysia, from legal duties and fiduciary responsibilities to the operational and cultural impact on organisations. Are chief executives overly shielded by their status? Do public listed companies face stricter oversight than private firms? And what protections exist for employees when misconduct happens at the leadership level?

Joining us for this conversation is Sheba Gumis, Partner at Skrine, to give us a sense of the legal safeguards, governance frameworks, and whether Malaysia’s system is robust enough to keep power in check.
