The New Hong Kong Chapter Board
Wednesday, 1 September, 2010
Dear Members & Friends of IFMA Hong Kong Chapter
It was my intention to introduce the new Hong Kong Chapter Board at the beginning of the Chapter year in July but regrettably I have been slow on finding time to update the President’s Blog.
The new Board are:
Jenny Yeung: Vice President and responsible for Integrate 2011 Conference
Johnny Yip: Secretary and responsible for Professional Development networking events
Bella Chan: Treasurer
Anita Lo: Director Education
Andy Crawford: Director Sponsorship
Gigi Nam: Director Membership
And of course Graham Tier is the Immediate Past President and will take on the responsibility for Communications including web site.
The Board have already set objectives for the coming year in terms of:
- Increasing and retaining membership through delivering valuable benefits
- Increasing sponsorship to facilitate the delivery of networking events for members
- Planning and delivering a networking events calendar to facility knowledge sharing
- Working with peer organisation to deliver joint networking events and build cross organisation relationships
- Delivering Facility Management Professional certification training
- Delivering Certified Facility Manager exam preparation training
- Maintaining an informative website
- Planning and delivering Integrate 2011 to be the most prestigious FM conference in Asia
Additionally we are working hard to strengthen links with IFMA HQ and this month we will host the IFMA CEO, Tony Keane on his first visit to Hong Kong.
So welcome to the new Chapter year and I am confident that the strong Board will deliver on all of the above to demonstrate that, now more than ever, IFMA is truly the representative body for FM professionals in Hong Kong and throughout the world.
Regards
Deric Probst-Wallace
