‘Your Success … Our Passion’
Andrew Welfare (from Short Street Butchers, Portland) shares his experience and results of leadership coaching with Karina –
 “Karina has helped me with my communication and interpersonal skills with myself and my staff.
I have always involved my staff in the decision making but have never had the skill to get them to say what they were really thinking. Through working with Karina she’s encouraged me to move away from the blame game to the how can we turn this around approach, with staff.
Staff used to think it was better to say nothing than say the wrong thing. Now when I ask for solutions to problems they realize there is no such thing as a bad idea and the simplest idea may be the solution required.”
Success Stories from current and previous clients
“Managing staff and client’s expectations in a large organization is an arduous task, with the assistance and coaching of Karina I am better positioned to effectively manage staff and satisfy individual client’s needs. Karina has provided me the tools to operate efficiently on a day to day basis whilst keeping sight of my long term goals. Coaching has prompted me to identify realistic goals and determine an appropriate path to achieving those goals”.

After a couple of coaching sessions with Karina Hogan from The Coaching Institute, she was very quickly able to focus me on the primary issues and solutions in regards to a staff management problem. It is amazing how much can be done in one hour. The ability to hone in quickly to the core of a problem is a real talent.

The team and I have greatly benefited from the DISC profiling session that you did for us. I think it has enabled the team to better understand why some people, clients and staff alike, react the way they do and also more importantly to better communicate with each other.
Thanks

Coaching was more enlightening than I ever could have imagined. Parts of my life were changing rapidly. I had come to a point where I had acknowledged to myself that I was deeply unhappy, but I had no idea why, or where to start changing. Karina showed me that I had the solutions to most of my issues, and the ability to think positively and find solutions to those that I didn’t. She did this by giving me a ‘judgment free zone’ in which I could honestly answer the tough questions I had been subconsciously avoiding. In subsequent sessions Karina helped me see my entrenched negative thinking on any and every aspect of my life I could say was weighing me down and then helped me identify positive actions I could take. With Karina’s support, enthusiasm and unfailing encouragement I realized just how much I had been stopping myself from moving forward. Anyone would benefit the from fresh, honest and positive look at their life that Karina helped me take.

I would like to thank you so much for the difference your coaching has made to my life.
Prior to coming to my first coaching session I was not happy with different areas of my life but had no idea where to start to make changes.
You helped me to focus on what was important to me through goal setting.
Instead of procrastinating about what needed to be done, you helped me to find a way to make the process enjoyable!
Although I knew I should exercise regularly I hadn’t committed to actually get active; through my coaching sessions with you I was able to identify what I needed to do to make this a reality. My personal training sessions are going great!
When you asked me if there was something that I had wanted to do in the past but had never followed through with, I almost laughed about wanting to learn to play the piano when I was younger. Thanks to your prompting I have had three lessons and am really enjoying them. Just goes to show you’re never too old to learn!
The coaching you have provided has opened up so many doors to me. Doors that I couldn’t even see prior to our sessions.
You have helped me to see that there is no such thing as “failure just opportunities to learn” and not to let the “speed humps” deter me!

Karina has guided me to understand that the only person I have to answer to is myself – I set my standards, rules & values & that the only person who can hold me back from living my goals & dreams is me. I’m now very aware of the “stories” I was subconsciously telling myself everyday – the excuses I told myself to justify procrastination & self sabotage.
A famous entrepreneur once said “Give it a crack” that’s my advice to you!
Thanks Karina for your ongoing guidance & support, I’m very grateful to have met you when I did.

Thank you so much Karina, your coaching and mentoring, you have taught me the importance of having clear concise goals, then implementing a step by step process in order for their achievement.
Your willingness to be of service, your patience, guidance and insight has allowed me to address areas of challenge to me, in a different way. I can now approach these areas with focus and a playful attitude, "where discipline was once a chore I now see it as a kind of order that sets me free". I am amazed at the difference it has already made in my life & business, by a simple change of attitude. With Gratitude
