2026 PRESIDENT
Connie kwan
Dearest my Jayceettes sisters,
It is with profound gratitude and a heart full of warmth that I pen this first message of 2026 as your President. Your unwavering trust, love, and support have brought us to this beautiful new beginning, and I am deeply honoured to serve alongside each and every one of you.
This year, we gently and purposefully declare 2026 as our Year of Transformation.
I dream of a year in which every one of you blooms a little brighter.
A year in which the quiet sister finds her voice and leads her own project.
A year in which we turn “I can’t” into “Watch me,” not because we have to prove anything to the world, but because we finally believe in the potential that lives inside us.
Transformation need not always be loud or dramatic.
Often, it is found in the tender moments — when we forgive ourselves for not being perfect, when we say yes to something that once frightened us, when we allow a sister to hold our hand through tears and cheer with us in triumph. Whatever form your personal transformation takes this year, whether bold and visible, please always remember that our entire 2026 Board of Directors are here to walk beside you, every single step along the way.
My promise to you is heartfelt and unwavering:
We will listen more than we speak.
We will create safe, nurturing spaces where you can be yourself.
We will celebrate your achievements as joyfully as if they were our own.
And on the days when life feels heavy, we will be there to remind you that you are cherished.
Our Mission in 2026

Our Three Strategic Pillars for 2026

Strengthening Membership Engagement & Sisterhood Bonds Enhancing retention and growth through meaningful connection initiatives, regular membership surveys, exclusive Jayceettes Benefits, Interest Groups, and an expanded Fellowship Programme that ensures a welcoming environment for all Jayceettes.
-
Elevating Brand Identity & Strategic Partnerships Rebrand JCI Hong Kong Jayceettes as an energetic, daring, and visionary female leader organization, emphasizing the transformation of members into confident women leaders, while forging public relations and external ties by building sustainable chapter-level relationships.
-
Driving Innovative & Impactful Leadership Leading high-impact initiatives in AI and ESG, digitalising administrative processes for greater efficiency, and creating a lasting knowledge-sharing platform that will serve as our legacy for generations to come.
Let’s step into 2026 holding each other a little closer, cheering a little louder, and loving a little fiercer. Let’s make this the year we look back on and say, “That was the year I grew wings—and my sisters were the wind beneath them.”
Together, we will transform beautifully and courageously without regrets.
WE United. Worlds Ignited.
