Presented by
HKICC in collaboration with HCC Global

Nov 16, 2023 Thursday 12:00pm – 2:00pm
Online Zoom Conference
Join Coaching Lab for serious play and coaching practice!
if you…

have practised coaching for a while and are looking for feedback on your coaching…
are looking for a safe learning space to experiment with new coaching models and approaches…
want to meet up with a community of exceptional coaches…
are an experienced coach that would like to develop your mentor coaching skills…
or just want to get some more deliberate coaching practice…

About this event:

Coaching Lab is a 2-hour playspace for coaching practice and learning for coaches. We aim to bring together exceptional coaches to this space to co-create sparks that are valuable for your growth. We are happy to have Henry Chamberlain, the Managing Director of HCC Global Limited, as the facilitator of the event.

Why Coaching Labs?

As coaches, we need to hone our skills constantly. However, sometimes it is hard for us to get good practice partners, or quality and practical feedback on our coaching. Coaching Lab aims to address these challenges. In this coaching playspace, participants will work in groups of three. You will get the opportunity to coach, be coached and be a coaching learning partner. As the name implies, Coaching Lab is also a space for you to play and experiment with new models or approaches on coaches in the community. You can press “redo” or “time-out” if you feel stuck or lost. Although we allow a wild mix of “chemistry” to happen in the Lab, the rule is to engage with compassion and have fun!

Session Format

• 20 minutes Welcoming and Introduction (in the main room):
– Henry will introduce “sticky note coaching” and you can decide whether you want to experiment with this coaching approach in
your session

• 3 x 30 minutes Coaching Practice + Feedback (in breakout rooms): Maximum of 20 minutes coaching, 10 minutes feedback. Facilitators will stay in the main room and can be called upon/invited into breakout rooms if necessary. You will be the coach, coachee, and observer in turn.
• 5 Minutes Group Debriefing: Group debriefing in the main room sharing insights and experiences and closing the learning session.
Facilitator
Henry is an internationally experienced psychologist and executive coach (PCC), with a track record of successfully transforming CEOs and senior executives across the globe. As the former Group Head of Selection at Standard Chartered Bank and Consulting Director at SHL Hong Kong, his experience provides him with exceptional insights into the challenges of optimal human performance.

Becoming the coach you don’t yet know you could be…
Sep 21, 2023 Thursday 7:30pm – 9:00pm
Venue : 2-4/F Pico Tower, 66 Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong

Ten years have passed since David Clutterbuck and the late David Megginson published their seminal paper introducing the concept of Coach Maturity. Substantial research has built on this concept to throw light on how coaches evolve in the depth, quality and impact of their practice. This unique, evidence-based session by Professor Clutterbuck shares critical lessons and provides insight for managing your evolution as a coach. Amongst the topics explored are:

The four stages of coach maturity – evolving skills, identity and mind frame
Why and how mature coaches let go of much of what they learned as beginners: mastery occurs when we learn how to break the rules
How to build the quality of your reflective practice
How mature coaches use themselves and their wisdom to enhance clients’ learning
How mature coaches see systems, where immature coaches see client problems
Why it’s important to free ourselves from goal obsession
How to become a mature supervisee

Presented jointly with Transcend International, HKICC looks forward to welcoming you to this coaching event of the year for coaches on any points of your coaching journey.

Professional coaches provide a service to create sustainable change. We live in an incredibly busy world today. Many are constantly busy with deadlines, chores, and hundreds of issues we need to deal with. When people ask how you are – the only answer some have is “I am busy”.
With continual change, it is very easy to go down the spiral with lot of things to handle and to manage continuous pressures of work or managing expectations of self and others. This can easily lead to exhaustion of emotional strength and leading to burnout.
How resilient are you as a professional coach?
And what differences you can make if you power up your resilience?
The engaging and energising 90-minute virtual workshops are packed with practical tips drawing on the best of Sports Science, Emotional Intelligence, Neuroscience, Medicine, Psychology and Biology will help you build awareness around the concept of self-resilience and explore the high road to being a resilient professional.

Key Intentions of this session are:

Build Awareness on your personal resilience
Grow capabilities to manage stress, pressure and challenges
Provide something “Practical ” that you can use in you daily lives
Apply what you have learnt to serve yourself and your clients

In this session, we will show what you can do to keep a tab on Your Resilience and use it as a powerful tool, share how the Navy Seals, athletes and executives handle pressure in challenges and how they come out of it confidently. You will learn how to handle the overload of pressure and key recovery rituals.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion: Are you ready to be a DEI coach? on 18 Aug, Fri, from 12:30 pm to 1:30 pm
2023-08-18 12:30 - 13:30
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion:
Are you ready to be a DEI coach?
Aug 18, 2023 Fri 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Online Zoom Conference

The World Economic Forum describes DEI as a competitive advantage, and evidence suggests that organizations with strong equity and inclusion programmes are more resilient and adaptable in times of crises.

Nevertheless, DEI remains a work-in-progress and a key area for improvement at many organisations – typically left in the hands of internal experts, OD and organisational consultants.

How is this relevant to coaches and is there more we can do as coaches and mentors? And if so, what is the work we need do on ourselves and with our peers so we are fully ready?

In this session we will explore the implications for working in the DEI field as a coach and mentor. We will discuss:

What are the unique challenges for DEI in an Asia Pacific context?
What is the inner work required to be fully ready to coach around DEI ?
What aspects of DEI generate either tension or uncertainty for you, and how you conduct your work? What can you do about this?
What is the work we can do collectively as peers, to deliver a sustainable shift in DEI across the region?

Speaker: Mark Powell
Mark is a seasoned leadership, executive and team coach. Working as a full-time coach since 2008 (after a corporate career in banking and hospitality), he has worked with leaders across 15 countries and 50 different organisations including global corporations, NFP organisations, and government.

Mark is a global volunteer on the EMCC global DEI committee. He brings his own considerable lived experience in the DEI space along with years of professional development related to how individuals belong and how teams include. Prior to coaching, Mark succeeded in a number of different leadership challenges through his career, including 20 years in Financial Services leading newly formed business units or helping to re-generate existing businesses through innovative product initiatives. He is also a proven entrepreneur, having started 4 businesses in 3 countries.

More recently, Mark has joined the faculty of the Academy of Executive Coaching. In this capacity he develops external and internal executive and team coaches across Asia Pac.

Venue : Wild at Art – 1/F, 4 Elgin Street, Soho, Central, Hong Kong
In-Person
To succeed in the world of coaching, we have to constantly reinvent ourselves as coaches to adapt to our clients’ evolving needs. But how do we do this? How do we see beyond our current reality to help our coachees evolve and transform?

In this interactive seminar, Henry will share his views on the state of coaching, the emerging needs and challenges of coachees, and how he infuses psychology into his coaching practice to make it transformational. In addition to tools and techniques, Henry will talk about the importance of personal evolution for coaches. He believes that coaches can only take their clients to the level of their own evolution. Using the Hero’s Journey as analogy for personal transformation, Henry will share insights on how we as coaches can use it to transform ourselves, our coaching impact and ultimately, our coachees.

We invite coaches who are interested in thought-provoking conversations ranging from the realistic to the romantic to join this session. Some of the specific areas to be covered are:
1. What does “Transformational” truly mean for coaches and coachees?
2. What’s missing in our coaching toolbox and mindset to make it more transformational?
3. The importance of a personal hero’s journey for coaches
4. The intersection of mythology and psychology: helpful models, theories, and approaches that coaches can embrace to become more transformational?
5. Interactive case study: Applying traditional and transformational approaches to see the same story from different angles
6. Q&A & discussion
Speaker :
Mr Henry Chamberlain

What Coaches Need to Know about Mental Health - a sharing by Mind HK

What Coaches Need to Know about
Mental Health – a sharing by Mind HK
Jun 8, 2023 Thur 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Online Zoom Conference

With its fast-pace and long working hours, Hong Kong has always been a stressful place and the problem is not helped by the recent COVID-related restrictions and health scares. Anxiety and depressive disorders are the most common mental health issues in Hong Kong, with 61% of Hong Kong adults currently suffer from poor mental well-being. Nevertheless, 74% of mental health sufferers do not seek any form of professional help. With these statistics, the possibility of coaches encountering clients with sub-par mental health is not negligible.
It is therefore important for coaches to recognise symptoms of possible mental health issues in their clients and know the various options and support available. To support our coaching community in this regard, HKICC has invited Mind HK to give us a briefing on the current state of mental well-being in Hong Kong, important symptoms to look out for in the clients we coach, course of action for coaches and support available, and how enrolling in the Mental Health First Aid course can help coaches be better equipped to handle such cases.
Mind HK
Mind HK (Mind Mental Health Hong Kong Limited) is a S88 registered charity (91/16471), which launched in 2017. The organisation’s vision is to ensure no one in Hong Kong has to face a mental health problem alone. Through resources, training, and outreach campaigns and programmes, their work helps to raise awareness of mental health and reduce the associated stigma, with the aim of achieving the best mental health for all in Hong Kong. With existing collaboration and research efforts, Mind HK is here to support Hong Kong in becoming a global leader and regional model for public mental health. For more on their work, vision and mission, please visit www.mind.org.hk.

New Benefits for HKICC Members – Professional Indemnity Insurance Programme

Briefing Event
May 30, 2023 Tue 8:00pm-9:00pm
Online Zoom Conference
If you are a coach working in developed counties like the US or UK, you would most probably be asked to provide evidence of your Professional Indemnity Insurance. This is not just to protect the companies and partners you are working with but it also allows you to practice professional coaching to the fullest of your abilities with confidence and authenticity.

Although such policies are not as available here as many of these developed countries, you might have been asked for one when working with multinationals or overseas intermediaries. As requested by quite a few of our members, HKICC has introduced a PI Programme for our members in 2022 to support the development of your coaching business. We are now inviting participants for our 2023 programme.

If you would like to know more about the programme, please join the briefing event on 30 May 2023 by Ms Milly Lok of UPS Capital Insurance Brokers when she will explain the terms and requirements of the programme as well as answer any questions you might have. Hope to see you then.

He believes using psychodrama can further his vision of creating more compassionate planet and loves to quote the Dalai Lama “the planet doesn’t need more successful people, the planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds.

To help coaches in Hong Kong especially local coaches to better understand and manoeuvre the various pathways and requirements, this CD event aim to demystify and empower participants in pursuing the right credential for them.
