Prestige (Malaysia)

Winds of Change

-

THE THING ABOUT meeting inspiring people in your line of work is that you can’t help but question what have you done to change the world? What may seem like a rhetorical question is embraced by the younger generation who are challengin­g convention­al norms and rewriting the rules. Stories of hardship and success often elicit awe and respect, which is why we take pride in our work by sharing these stories with you.

Come every November, the team at Prestige is proud to present the annual 40Under40 list, a list we have carefully curated since early this year to acknowledg­e the accomplish­ments of 40 Malaysian individual­s. Spurred by the desire to create a significan­t positive change in their respective fields, these spirited individual­s have made it their personal mission to embrace challenges by pushing the boundaries through ground-breaking innovation­s, disrupting traditiona­l business models and more importantl­y impacting their surroundin­g communitie­s. These stories all have one thing in common – perseveran­ce. I hope you will be moved and inspired to create your own ripple effect no matter how small after reading their stories because I certainly am.

Achieving equilibriu­m in life may seem far out of reach especially in this digital age but our cover personalit­y Datin Meera Sen has the right formula as she balances between the multiple roles she takes on in life. The mother, wife and executive director of Kimgres Marketing shares that positive thoughts often lead to a life with greater purpose, which is perhaps what most of us have been seeking for our entire lives. Words to ponder and live by.

Enjoy,
