ICF-CT Weekly

Hello Coaches & Friends,

As you heard from Monica, we are moving our in-person meetings to be virtual, with the hopes to continue the momentum of our previous event and support each other in this uncertain time. In case you missed that email:

Until further notice: Due to the outbreak of Covid-19 virus, and after considering the recommendations of our health authorities, all chapter meetings and Coach Café’s will be virtual, at least through the end of April. The ICF CT board has met and agreed that we need to make safe choices. Though we all are healthy adults, we may come in contact with health-compromised friends or family and we don’t feel it is a good idea to take that risk when we don’t have to. There is an opportunity in this to meet the needs of the members in new ways. Virtual meetings can have educational, networking, and social support aspects and we plan to take advantage of that going forward.

Check the calendar to stay connected with us!

March event was moved to virtual, let's make it FUN!

March Event - Virtual

Networking in the Face of the Coronavirus!

ICF-CT Virtual Meeting

Meeting/Program 8:00 - 9:30 am

ICF CCE 2.5 hours Resource Development

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

Given the concerns regarding the outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), we are converting our March in-person meeting to a virtual format. We are making this a FREE event for ANYONE, member or not. If you know someone who has thought about coaching, or is not a member of ICF but is a coach, please invite them to join us.

These times are concerning, and we are constantly monitoring the situation to determine if future meetings and events will be held in-person or virtually. For the months of March and April we will hold all meetings and Coach Cafes in a virtual format.

We will be updating the events on the website and in your ICF-CT Weekly email.

Please note that there are wonderful resources available to members on the ICF Global website under COVID-19 Guidelines for Coaches.

We have moved the planned program to May (with some new additions), and instead will host a modified version of networking this month to include:

60 second introductions for everyone on the call: share name, hometown, niche, and something creative you are doing to stay “germ free.”

Discussion with communities of practice: internal coaches, executive coaches (paid by stakeholder), and personal coaches (client pays the coach directly). We are planning to set up breakout rooms for 10 minutes or so.
Group Ask/Share – any questions, requests or offers by members
Join us for the first of many virtual meetings in this new reality.

Registration is required to get the Zoom access code.

If you already registered for the original March meeting, we will refund your money.

Please put the following date on your calendar:
April 24th, 8 am to 9:30 am. Virtual Chapter Meeting: Coaching Trends and Artificial Intelligence.

We are also working on a plan to make our Coach Cafés into a Virtual Coffee Chat. Watch for more details.

Please stay involved with the chapter through our Forum page (for members) and our social media pages.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to members of the board.

Thanks,

Monica Leggett, PCC
ICF Connecticut President
