Performance Coaching Staff Support Sessions and Packages Client Successes

At aVara Consulting coaching focuses on enabling already successful people to be even better. Whether you’re looking for performance coaching, business coaching or executive coaching, this approach may well be for you. Taking coaching to another level, we enable you to shift patterns of behaviour, often very fast, to get the results you want. .

We work with leaders in business, as well as staff across all levels, helping raise performance, satisfaction and enjoyment at work. Our coaching approach lends itself to a range of organisational needs including leadership, communication, wellness and people management.

Coaching is one of the fastest developing industries in the world. More and more organisations are embracing coaching as a key development tool for staff and leaders alike. Organisations also want to know when they invest in coaching that they will see meaningful sustained change.

What distinguishes this coaching from other kinds is that it enables you to make rapid and lasting changes at an unconscious level. This includes changing patterns of behaviour and issues you may not be consciously aware of or clear about right now. It is a guaranteed return on investment.

""I'm not a business guru who will tell you how to run your business. I will, however, teach you how to run your brain."
Karen Ross

When we are overwhelmed, stressed, unable to improve quickly, or lack communication skills, it can feel like a real challenge to move forward easily. You can make changes, whether it’s overcoming low confidence, stage fright, or difficulty dealing with someone at work, and often more easily than you think!

Using a range of techniques and methodologies including Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), transformational coaching helps break patterns of behaviour, identify underlying roadblocks and create new strategies for success.

This is ultimately about helping you use your brain on purpose – helping you get more in charge of how you think, feel and respond – and therefore your results. You really can achieve a sustained lift in clarity, confidence and performance. And when we feel clear, confident and know we are doing a good job, we feel good. And after all, what else is it all for?

Client Successes

Here are some of the successes clients have enjoyed:

The changes I've experienced, after working with Karen have made such a difference to my life. It was a challenging end to last year, with our company, like so many others, going through huge restructuring and the inevitable job losses. Despite an extended period of uncertainty that's part of the process, I've been able to remain pretty much focussed on what I have control over and not spend energy worrying about what I cannot influence. It was really good to have some time off though to catch my breath. This year has started well and I'm feeling good and in control of my emotions which, is a great way to feel.

Kim, Auckland

I would like to offer my most sincere thanks to you for my 'marathon' breakthrough session last Tuesday. That was possibly the most valuable six hours of my life! I returned to fulltime work yesterday, and my colleagues just cannot believe the changes in me… All the techniques and tools/resources that you gave me and helped me develop, are both excellent and effective… Thank you so very much.

T.B., Auckland

I found I was going into a complete panic in my head when called on to talk at group meetings. Plus, when presenting I couldn't focus on the messages I was trying to get across. As a result, I've missed out on many opportunities.

After just three coaching sessions I've experienced real change. I'm proud to say that today I was one of the most vocal and contributed on par with two of the most senior managers there!

Annette, Project Manager
I had been under lots of pressure at work for a long period of time. My blood pressure was high, I had lost all confidence in myself, and was finding it difficult to cope with anything, whether it was work or pleasure. I was constantly exhausted. Even the smallest problem would seem huge. Within a short period of time doing NLP with Karen, I have found a new job working less hours, my blood pressure has dropped and I feel back in control of my life. Karen just made everything seem clear and attainable. My family have all noticed that I am relaxed and back to being my normal happy go-lucky character. Thanks Karen

Your insights and tools have enabled me to get a grasp on life again and when an issue or life challenge comes up, I am able to trust myself to find the answers. I know that I can change things.
