 President's Message
“Learning occurs between a fear and a need. On the one
hand, we feel the need to change if we are to accomplish our goals. On
the other, we feel the anxiety of facing the unknown and unfamiliar.”
[Peter Senge]
JCI is a forum for learning and for change.
Active membership of JCI brings about positive change in yourself as well as
the communities within which you operate. You can make a difference to
both yourself and to others. It is an organisation where you can try
out new things in a supportive environment and get outside that comfort zone
with encouraging mentors and coaches. Chambers throughout the
UK
provide a program of excellent personal development training sessions but
every event is a learning opportunity. For example:
- On 10th May, JCI London is hosting President’s Day
where local chamber Presidents and their Deputies (or nominated
officers) get together with National Board to take part in National
Council (management of the organisation), training and networking
opportunities.
- On 17th May, JCI Manchester is hosting JCI
Presenter, a one-day course designed to help those who want to enhance
their skills as a presenter. This course may be used as a one-time
presentation course or the first step in becoming a JCI University
Trainer.
- You can become a JCI Trainer through a managed process that
will enhance your skills in the work place.
- JCI Trainer’s (see the JCI Training Directory) are available
to provide training sessions to the membership utilising JCI or their
own materials.
- You can organise a training event, bringing together your
members and a JCI Trainer and if you have a member that wants to learn
more, that member can be coached by a Buddy Trainer to provide that
training session to their own chamber or others around the country.
If you have a need for development or change or goals to achieve
and wish to reduce the feeling of anxiety that accompanies facing the
unknown or unfamiliar, then contact your local President or Personal
Development/Training Director and have a go. You might just find that
you enjoy it! Here’s to learning significant things!!
