Throughout the three-day, two-night program, participants engaged in interactive activities and group training sessions focusing on leadership, effective communication, conflict management, creativity, and high-performing team building. The course was facilitated by Mr. Mohamad Ariff Azahari (Coach Ariff) from Positive Impressions, an expert in organizational and leadership development.

The closing ceremony was officiated by LAKMNS Chief Executive Officer, YBhg. Datuk Haji Abang Abdul Wahap bin Haji Abang Julai, who encouraged all officers to continuously enhance their leadership capabilities and embrace the L.E.A.D Model – Learn, Engage, Adapt, Drive – as a guide to cultivating a high-performance work culture.

Datuk Haji Abang Abdul Wahap also emphasized that young officers should serve as agents of transformation and cultural ambassadors, ensuring LAKMNS remains relevant, excellent, and respected as a world-class Islamic trust organization. He further highlighted that LAKMNS has made significant progress toward achieving its global vision, setting a benchmark for other institutions in governance and management excellence.
