Newsletter – December 2024

Dear ICF HKG Members and Coaches,

As we near the end of an engaging year, I want to express my gratitude for your support. Your involvement in our events and digital platforms has been crucial.

Reflecting on my journey from a Senior Leader in hospitality to a dedicated & passionate coach, I’ve learned to appreciate the balance between corporate life and the challenges of entrepreneurship. Over the past four years, I’ve grown personally and professionally, thanks to the support of our community’s seasoned coaches.

Since joining the board in January 2022, I’ve focused on fostering connections during a time of disconnection. In my role in Operations Excellence, I’ve worked to enhance our chapter’s communication and optimize digital operations. Recent improvements reflect your valuable feedback, allowing us to better serve you.

After three years collaborating with our service provider and gaining the trust of chapter leaders and board members, I’m proud of our progress. Looking ahead, we’re excited to maintain this momentum and celebrate the 15th anniversary of the ICF Hong Kong Chapter with a lineup of fantastic events in 2025.

Wishing you and your families a blessed Christmas and joyful holiday season.

Warm regards,

Kevin Chuc
Career & Leadership Development Coach | Speaker & Facilitator
ICF HK Board Member | ICF – ACC
