Recently in HK membership Category

When I started the IAC HK Chapter, I found there were only 6 members. Now, we have 17 in Hong Kong and 5 in China. Hurray......

Next is to looking forward to have more certified coaches.

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.

Upon my conversation with Kerri, IAC Chapters head leader, I come to aware that I have to get a clarity in mind of how to position our Chapter in Hong Kong. As far as I know, there are few non-profit making groups in Hong Kong are helping the developement of the coaching profession here.

• Hong Kong International Coaching Community (HKICC since 2002)

The biggest no-profit-making coaching organization in Hong Kong under corporate entity, consisting of over 120 members as of Jul 2007 and regularly organizing the Professional Development Meetings and Executive Coaching Conference for members.

• ICF Hong Kong Chapter

The Chapter is hosted by Wilson Wan who is an active coach in Hong Kong having a nick name of Magic Wilson. Not active in gatherings.

• CoachU Hong Kong Chapter

The Chapter is hosted by Angela Spaxman and it seems not in active.

• IAC Hong Kong Chapter (since 2007)

This is our newly established Chapter in Oct 2007, hosted by Bonnie Chan IAC-CC.

I found HKICC is doing excellent work in building a coaching community, assisting coaches in their professional development, educating public about what is coaching and promoting coaching effectiveness to coporations. Thus, it is no point for me to work duplicately in the same areas.

Taking the most unique area of IAC as an non-profit making international certifying body, I decided to focus the IAC Hong Kong Chapter in assisting coaches in turning themselves from a good coach to a masterful coach by attaining the IAC certification as the first phase. When more coaches get certified, we could consider to the next phase, such as professional and business development of this group of coaches locally and internationally. We network globally.

Well, I feel more focus and visionary for the great development of coaching in Hong Kong in value-adding to individual and corporations' personal and organizational effectiveness respectively through the IAC Hong Kong Chapter.

I have an honor to browse the membership website of IAC and found that there is an increase in members from Hong Kong of which I listed below. I feel no more lonely of being the Chapter host here as I have these people with me. Let me reach out to them!!!!!!!
