Dear Fellow JCI Member,

Have you ever felt that maybe, there’s something more to our leadership training than just the Project Planning Seminar and the Vanguard? Have you ever thought that there’s more to the Jaycees than just learning how to become more effective leaders by doing projects?

Well, there’s good news for you. JCI has a signature program that is usually available only during conferences and conventions. This is called JCI Prime. JCI Prime gives you the confidence to present complex information in a clear and engaging ways that dramatically increases your ability to motivate and inspire others. It is a 2 1/2 day training which will equip you with the skills to be a better coach, speaker, and trainor, skills that you can use to lead your team or organization to greater heights.

Usually, a 2 1/2 day seminar like this from other outside training organizations would cost upwards of P15,000. Here in JCI, the seminar is FREE. Yes, it’s FREE because while you only pay for the Prime Textbook (which is only available through JCI) and for the cost of the food and the 3D2N accomodations, you get to be under the tutelage of one of the very few JCI Certified Prime Coaches in the World, JCI Mem. Mennen Aracid. All in all, you’ll be spending only P7, 500.00 (and P7,000 if you pay on or before August 3, 2007) for a weekend training which will equip you to become more effective in handling people, coaching them, guiding them, so that they perform at their best. If you’re not yet a manager of people, this seminar will ensure that you’ll get there.

This is the last year that JCI Prime will be conducted so hurry up, avail of this opportunity. In the following years, JCI Prime will be broken up and replaced by 2 seminars that will take 2 1/2 days EACH. So if time is of concern to you, this is the only time when you can get it all in one weekend.

So, mark the dates, August 17-19, 2007 and we assure you one of the best learning experiences possible in your JCI career. The seminar will be held at the Seven Suites Hotel, Sumulong Highway, Antipolo, Metro Manila. Arrival time at the venue is 11:00 a.m. and will start promptly after lunch at 1:00 p.m.

For those who will pay on or before August 3, 2007, we are offering you an early bird discount. Just call up the JCI Manila clubhouse and look for Evelyn or Nilda at 525-6792 to advise them that you’ll be faxing your payment for the JCI Prime Seminar. The Fax No. is 525-2631.

Hurry up, this may be the last opportunity you’ll be getting something so valuable, in such a short period of time for only the cost of a 3D2N accommodation with all meals included.

This project is hosted by JCI Manila in recognition of the urgent need for each LOM to have qualified and dynamic trainors who will equip future generation of members as the rest move up the JCI ladder.

Have a nice day!

Greetings Fellow JCI Members!

The country’s most prestigious awards search for outstanding young Filipinos is “The Outstanding Young Men” Awards. Now on its 48th year, the TOYM 2007 is the flagship project of the Junior Chamber International Philippines and was launched last June 20, 2007 with Dean Napoleon V. Abueva, 1959 TOYM Awardee for Sculpture and one of the country’s National Artist, as Guest of Honor, and the members and officers of JCI Philippines headed by National President, JCI Sen. Glenn B. Santos, in attendance.

The Outstanding Young Men (TOYM) Awards has grown to be the country’s most coveted recognition for young Filipinos aged 18 to 40. The TOYM Awards have been a yearly undertaking of the Jaycees since 1959. The Gerry Roxas Foundation, Inc. has been a co-sponsor of the awards since 1972 and the TOYM Foundation which was established in 1990 to ensure the high standards that the awards have always been known for.

Over the years, the TOYM has become an institution, having developed a reputation for its selectiveness of outstanding young men and women upon whom the award is conferred. TOYM seeks to give national recognition to young Filipino men and women whose selfless dedication to their profession or vocation has resulted in significant contributions to the welfare of their countrymen and our country at large, as well as to the advancement of their respective fields of endeavor. The awardees who have become beacon lights of the nation totaling 401 by now, is literally a Philippine “Who’s Who” in outstanding achievements in areas such as community service, the arts, literature, journalism, education, law, politics, agriculture, science and technology, economics, banking, business, sports, government service, and other fields of endeavors.

To help us ensure this year’s TOYM Search, we are soliciting your support to nominate qualified nominees for said award. Your LOM can earn three (3) points per nominee maximum of six (6) points in the JCIPEA. Attached to this circular is the TOYM Nomination Form.
