Message from the
President
With all the upcoming
events and projects, it sure looks like another
promising and exciting month! It is also glamorous
because not only do we have several workshops with
experienced coaches and public speakers lined up for
you, some of us have also appeared on television
recently to promote coaching! No, we haven’t
abandoned our professions and turned into actors;
TVB Jade will broadcaste a programme based on
professional coaching from 7.00 to 7.30pm on 11
July.

| Feedback and Coaching in Asia: How is it Received? Does it Work? - Joyce Jenkins |
 |
|
At the tables, the friendly banter and laughter has
a nervous edge. You can see an element of bravado
in the conversations that are taking place, a sort
of mental and sometimes physical squaring of the
shoulders preparing for what is to come. But as the
papers are handed out, the noise dies down and an
expectant hush comes over the room.

| The Top 10: ways to manage people more effectively |
 |
|
By Deborah WY Ko
- Match the right person to the position –
define the requirements of the position and find the
person who fits the job rather than redefining the
job to fit the capabilities of the incumbent;
- Continue to provide training courses which
help people upgrade their skills – continuous
training keeps people at their best;
- Acknowledge and reward the high performers –
pay them what they are worth, it will be returned to
you tenfold or more;
- Have expectations and tell people up front
exactly what these expectations are;

Why did you join HKICC?
I am the Hong Kong representative of ICF and was
introduced to Mr. SK Shum, President of HKICC at one
of the ICF meetings. Like most of its members, I
believe we share a common goal, vision and mission
for coaching. I joined HKICC because I wish to make
a contribution in several areas but am particularly
interested in helping to transform HKICC into a
recognized accredited body for the coaching
profession in Hong Kong.

Tell us about what you do at HKICC?
My official post is the Secretary here. Before, I
was the Secretary for the CXC sub-committee. In
2004, I was in charge of organizing the free
coaching programmes for the Salvation Army and
AICSEC. In the same year, I also organized the
first Speed Coaching Day and the first free talk for
CXC sub-committee.

| Coach Exchange (CXC) Talk – DISC "Dominant Influencing Steady Compliant" 22 June 2006 |
 |
|
By Angela Leung
There is a saying which is that we are all the same
because we are all different. We each have our own
individual behavioral styles and that is why
interacting with people is the most interesting and
challenging part of life. DISC is an assessment tool
which helps us to distinguish a person’s behavioral
style. It can also help us to understand ourselves
and others better. If people learn about this tool
and use them at work, they can work more effectively
as a team and produce greater results.

Find out what really happened when 9 coaches

good food and of course, being coaches, talk. Our
first ever New Members Welcome Lunch organized by
our VP Membership, Chi-wang was memorable!

Coaching
Date: Monday, July 17th
Time: 7:15pm - 9pm
Fee: HK$200/person
As women we have come to
measure our sensual identity from a
patriarchal mindset through generations of
repression. As women, especially living and

misunderstanding about how we "work"
energetically, emotionally, spiritually and
physically.
