UCC Launches Vision Logbook Planner with Top Leadership Experts

Thinking about change doesn't happen only when New Year's Day comes along. Changing something for the better can start at anytime of the year.

“People can both desire and fear change,” says motivational speaker Francis Kong. “What we need to do is to learn how to let go of our fear of change. If we want to consciously bring about change for the good, then that change has to be envisioned and planned.”

“Change is not that hard to achieve,” says personal finance expert Randell Tiongson. “It’s really just a matter of adapting a system that works for you. We could be looking to accomplish personal, financial, professional, or social change. Keep in mind that change can be a positive force and that we need to actively take steps to make things happen.”

The Vision Logbook cum Planner of UCC contains short modules on different aspects of change, quotations and tips on how to be successful in life.

The beacons of change are some of the country’s top business coaches. These beacons are experts in their respective fields and when it comes to planning for change. The beacons of change who contributed to the vision logbook include Tiongson, Kong, and mind mapping expert Raju Mandhyan.

UCC Coffee Concept Store launched the elegant UCC Vision Logbook at the UCC Cafe Terrace, 26th St. Forbestown Center, Taguig City on December 7, 2010, hosted by RJ Ledesma. All leaders of change - namely Young, Kong, Tiongson, Mandyhan, and Let's Go Foundation's Prof. Francisco “Jay” M. Bernardo III  - graced the event and gave an enlightening short speech or teaser of their concept of change. Let’s Go Foundation is a foundation aimed at poverty alleviation through entrepreneurship education, contributed the Entrepreneurship Workbook for Change module.

Entrepreneur and visionary Hubert Young thought it was the right time for a vision logbook that can help people bring about change. Young, owner of the UCC Coffee concept shops in the Philippines, decided to bring together the beacons of change to help him create that vision logbook.

THE VISION LOGBOOK PROMO
The basic vision logbook includes 2011 and 2012 calendars and contains various useful modules such as a travel vision logbook, conversion tables, notes, and Francis Kong stories, tips, and quotations. This can be claimed after a UCC customer accumulates P5,000 in UCC Coffee Concept Store receipts. More promotional coupons for free dishes or drinks are inside the logbook.

A customer may claim the logbook by presenting receipts issued within the promo period (December 15, 2010-February 28, 2011). Customer will be given a Beacons of Change Card which will give him/her a chance to get a seat to a Group Collaboration Talk with Francis Kong. (Beacons of Change Card will be stamped when claiming add-on modules and for joining Coffee Collaboration talks.)

 
MODULES ON CHANGE/ COFFEE COLLABORATION TALKS
Customers may also avail themselves of additional modules, such as Randell Tiongson’s 12 Easy Steps to Financial Wellness, Mind Mapping by Raju Mandhyan, and the “Entrepreneur’s Workbook for Change” by Let’s Go Foundation. Customers can choose one of these three modules for every P1,500 single minimum receipt purchase at UCC Coffee Concept Stores within the promo period.

But wait, there's more! UCC is also organizing hour-long Coffee Collaboration Talks. These will give UCC loyal customers the rare chance to meet the leaders for a conversation and consultation.

Five percent of the proceeds from the UCC Beacons of Change Vision Logbook program will be donated to Christ’s Commission Fellowship (CCF), a movement with outreaches for ethics and values formation for government, outreaches for prisoners, street children, cancer and substance abuse patients, and other sectors of society.

The program is a way for UCC to enable some of our country’s top beacons of change to help others become themselves beacons of change, one day at a time.
