The rapid evolution of AI can often feel overwhelming, but when approached with a coaching mindset, it becomes a powerful catalyst for growth. On 18th August 2026, the HKICC community came together for a workshop that beautifully bridged the gap between cutting-edge technology and human-centric connection.
Hosted by Kainny Chin, a new HKICC leadership team member with a two-decade background in banking business strategy and change management, the evening was intentionally designed around group coaching techniques rather than a traditional, screen-heavy tech seminar. Laptops were put away, allowing the focus to shift entirely to active listening, peer-to-peer sharing, and meaningful dialogue. Participants engaged in dynamic small-group discussions before sharing their insights with the wider room, creating a palpable energy and an incredibly high level of engagement.
One highlight of the night was our collaborative exploration of the current AI landscape. Through live, interactive demonstrations, we experimented together—co-creating prompts in real-time. We discovered that interacting with AI tools is much like guiding a junior assistant: it requires clear communication, curiosity, and a true coaching approach.
Beyond just exploring selected tools, the conversation dove deep into practical strategies for navigating AI’s limitations and adapting to this fast-paced trend. Participants left not only with actionable tech insights but with a renewed mindset to leverage AI, buying back their time for the high-value, human-to-human work that truly matters.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined, discussed, and reflected with us. The journey of transformation continues, and we look forward to exploring more ways to learn and grow together.
Stay tuned for more opportunities to connect and co-create at our upcoming HKICC events!
