Celebrations:
a leadership project and a new book series |
|
With this one hundredth issue of our e-newsletter
we are celebrating the imminent second birthday of the Federation's
Hong Kong 200 Leadership Project and the launch of our first
series of books, Youth & Leadership. Hong Kong 200 is a
ten-year leadership project for students with a serious commitment
to serve Hong Kong. The book series parallels the effort and
is dedicated to the young people we serve, striving to develop
their leadership potential and skills.
|
Leadership training is one of our
core services. It nurtures a sense of social responsibility
intrinsic to the contribution young people can make to their
city. We hope that both the books and the training project
will help them to generate the strength they need to tackle
future challenges. A launch ceremony for both events will be
held on 19 May. See Upcoming Events for details
and Feature Story for some feedback from our young leaders.
With sincere thanks to the principal sponsor of Hong Kong
200, Dr Raymond Chan, DBA, JP. |
