Some of the companies she worked with in her business include Sun Microsystems, ECS Malaysia, ZD Events, Epicor and Porter Novelli.

After 13 years in the events and conference organizing industry, Murshidah went on to discover her passion of empowering people and helping them to excel in their life.

Murshidah’s courses address the importance of education for the WHOLE BEING, ie incorporating the interconnection of body, mind, heart and spirit.

“I have attended many courses and I never expected the Secretarial Skills Course you conducted to be this good. It’s very different from other workshops I’ve been to. I have learnt so much more than I expected. Thank you!” Haslina Jamir, Secretary, Percetakan Nasional Malaysia Bhd.

“This motivational speech by Pn Murshidah made me realize that being sad or down won’t help me at all. I regain my spirit as I’ve learn from her that a human’s spirit is the most strongest form of power source we have. From now on I’ll think positive, smile a lot and be the best that I can be. Repeated words last longer, and so I will repeat positive things to myself. I feel happier and lighter, much more than I was before this program. Thank you Pn Murshidah” ( Amiza, student of UKM)
