Message
from the
President
Dear HKICC Friends,
The biggest challenge companies face these
days - particularly in Hong Kong and China -
is to recruit, engage and retain top
talents.
In the New Year of the Rat I can’t
envision that these challenges will go away,
therefore, I
want to briefly elaborate how coaching might
be an effective tool in all three areas,
talent recruitment, engagement and
retention.

Dan Reiland's free monthly e-newsletter 'The
Pastor's* Coach' available at www.INJOY.com."
Good coaches care about the people they
coach. This is a simple thought but a true
gift when it plays out over a long period of
time. When genuine care is not in play the
definition of success is quickly blurred if
not completely compromised.
The 1996 Oscar winning movie Jerry Maguire
is a great story about the heart of a sports
management professional, Jerry (Tom Cruise),
who is stressed out and lands in a frenzy
about making money, even at the expense of
the health and families of his athletes. He
ends up having a nervous breakdown.

What led you into
coaching?
During my first NLP training course I
experienced the power and effectiveness of
the techniques and knew instantly that this
was what I wanted to do with my life. Whilst
I had a successful career in marketing I
knew I could make a bigger difference to
others by assisting them in letting go of
negative emotions and anything that holds
them back from achieving greatness.

| Trends in Executive Coaching - a Global Survey |
|
|
For the third year in a row, a global
survey conducted by Sherpa Coaching, an
executive coach training and certification
organization based in Ohio, has gathered
information and insight about executive
coaching and leadership development from
coaches themselves and from those who hire
them.
The survey reveals the latest trends in
executive coaching: 1) coaching as a
leadership development tool, rather than a
problem-solving mechanism; 2) in-person
coaching; 3) regular and structured meetings,
with fixed-length engagements; 4) adoption
of industry standards for training and
certification.
