Happy New Year from Coaching Associates!

I hope you had a relaxing, restful and rejuvenating break and are ready to hit the ground running with healthy energy!

Did you successfully achieve all you 2008 goals?

Have you set goals for 2009 that really inspire you? Or are you dithering just a little? If you are dithering keep on reading as we just may have something for you. If you have got your goals sorted I am very happy to help you tweak them and get an achievement plan in place. Do call, email and check out what we can create that works for you.

I am definitely looking forward to connecting with many people this year, to really do work that is going to benefit all of us in this unprecedented global environment. Some of my goals to achieve this are detailed below so please do read on...

Announcing the launch of Pivot

Some of you have been introduced to Pivot. Pivot is a business retreat developed for people who want to lead their businesses through this year so you not only survive, but survive well. We believe this year is the year smart business owners like you know that doing what you did last year is not going to be good enough in 2009. This is the optimum time to act.

PIVOT Business Retreat is the opportunity to zero in on you and your business and walk away with new processes, ideas and the expert support to achieve your goals for the year. It is focused on you, your style, your capacity for development and how to get the best out of your relationships be they staff, customers, networks or community.

Pivot is a joint venture with my friend and coach extraordinaire Gai Foskett. We want you to love your business with the sort of passion that makes it seem easy and effortless, that gives you a freedom from stress. PIVOT Business Retreat is the opportunity to focus on what you want to change, and accelerate the results. Please check it out here and do send us any questions or send it on to any one you know who this will fit to a tee.

Introducing Valued Associates

It is my intention this year to keep introducing you to associates who can add specialized value to you.

The first one is Rae Whyman. Rae is an Associate Certified coach with the International Coach federation, plus has 20+ years experience in accountancy. She is available not just for coaching but also to:

• Set up accounting systems tailored to your business
• Budgets and profitability reporting
• Product costings
• GST and income tax returns

So do send Rae an email.

The second associate is one of my secret weapons. Are you like me and struggle with the dreaded admin of your business? You might just benefit from Jean Caldwell of PA 2 Go who amongst other things organises the Friday Filosophy every fortnight as well as this newsletter.

Your Friday Filosophy Gift

This will continue to come on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of each month. Enjoy them please. I do love hearing your feedback when it is perfect for you at that moment.

Are you looking for some office space?

There is office space available at 86 College Hill, Ponsonby Auckland. A fully furnished large room which also comes with storage space, car park, alarm, internet, power, full equipped kitchen/bathroom. Only a one minute walk from Three Lamps (and Cafes!). Call Linley on 09 376 3370.

Coaching and Training Coaching Skills

Still the core business and still the valued part of my relationship with many of you. Particularly if we haven't worked together for some time call me, email me and find out what has been happening in the world of human development science and our capacity for change (of the positive sort!)

I am very keen to explore developing our skills in relating to others, social connectedness, mindfulness, and developing our intuitive selves to ensure powerful, happy lives whatever we intentionally choose to do.

Call me for what might work for you or your business/organisation I have many options and programmes available.

I do want to share that I was very lucky to have the opportunity to deliver a coach training programme to senior managers in a large organisation in Mumbai, India. Not only have I gained many new friends it was humbling to know that many of the issues we have in business here are replicated in their country. Being there in late November I got to witness first hand how a city and a country deals with being subjected to terrorist attacks that claim innocent lives of their citizens and visitors.

Warmest wishes to you all,

Linley Rose
