Chapter Hosts Corner: December 2007 Archives

I would like to announce a good news that Benny Cheung is approved by IAC headquarter to host the IAC Shenzhen Chapter. Isn't it amazing that only after 3 months of the kick of the IAC HK Chapter, we have our new sister chapter in China.

Well, our next target will be the IAC Guangzhou Chapter. Will you be the president of it?

Please contact Coach Bonnie at bonnie@coachlite.com for any enquiry or write direct to Kerri of IAC.

I am very excited to let you know that since we have kicked off in Oct 2007, 3 new members from Hong Kong and 1 new member from China were increased.

It has been 4 months passed after the kick off of the first IAC HK Chapter meeting in Oct, 2007. Here are some of my sharing on how to run an IAC local chapter:

1. Since we do not have much support in hardware, such as venue, adminstration and etc. the most valuable and the only asset is people. I, therefore, develop a self-initiated and group-serving culture within the Chapter. There is no host for each Chapter meeting. Everybody comes in is part of the meeting to take care the flow of it. Well, I enjoy each meeting with any feeling of burden.
2. I do not build a reminding culture by sending Gentle Reminder monthly. I build a Weblog to post all the information and also post month advertisement on to the HKICC newsletter to attract those who are serious about this coaching meeting.
3. I have chosen a cozy place than a classroom or meeting room to let participants feel at home and relax. Here is a place for personal freedom in learning and exchanging knowledge and views.
4. Do not mind the attendance, even one or two participants are precious for the meeting because although coaching is hit in Hong Kong among the people industry but no for everybody yet. They will come when time goes by.
