Thank You!

I think it's time to thank a few people.

Thank you Deb Robertson for encouraging me to set up this blog, to pour my work into it and share it with everyone - thank you also Deb for helping me with the technical wizardry that enables this to happen.

I am an agent of transformation, I make huge differences to whoever enters my orbit - getting help from people who appreciate what I do and want to be a part of getting it out there, has always been a challenge for me to accept...I must be having a breakthrough with this right now.

Thanks to all my clients! You guys are amazing! You let me contribute and you take my contribution and you are all flying with it - I am so blown away by all of you! You know who I'm talking about!

Thanks Leigh, for nailing me on who I am and who I choose to run away and hide from. I know that admitting my cowardice unleashes my courage to step out and do what I'm here to do.

Thanks Rose, for believing in me and loving me! You inspire me like crazy! You have given me our son, our family and our fun and love. Thank you my son for all that you give me and for letting me love you.

Thanks to all my coaches - you guys are going out and making that difference to many, many others - You are my legacy and everything I have is yours.

Thank you to all my guides and mentors - you know who you are! I hold your legacy and take everything you have to the world.

This blog is here to contribute and all of you have helped me to get it up and running and this is your legacy - thank you and you are welcome to contribute and participate further - you really make a difference.

Thank you all!

Who needs a coach anyway???

Do you feel stuck in your life?
Are you stressed all of the time?
Do you feel like you have untapped potential?
Do you often feel overwhelmed?
Do you feel like life is passing you by?
Do you hate your job?
Do you procrastinate on a regular basis?

If the answer to all or even most of the above is yes... then keep reading.

Lots of successful people use coaches to give them the edge.... all see the value in having a professional coach by their side.

Ask yourself this question....

“Am I ready to let a coach help me move to the next level of my life?”

And the next and probably only question left to ask is:

“Do I think this coach would be a great coach for me and do I have the courage to tell them that?”

So if you’ve had enough of mediocrity or compromising on your hopes and dreams, now is a great time to take me up on the offer of a free Goal Setting consultation and find out what coaching can offer you!

Are you ready to begin living your life on the edge of your comfort zone?

If for any reason you decide you don’t want to continue after we’ve completed one full session, no problem I understand and you won’t owe me a penny, a cent or even a Euro.* Even if the reason is because you got everything you needed out of one session I won’t charge you, and that has happened! If you’d like to hear what people that have worked with me have had to say about the process click here.

Mike Kennedy - Coach

In the old American Indian story about the two wolves, there is an analogy of there being two wolves in every human. The black wolf wants to destroy you and your works and the white wolf wants to develop you, grow you and nurture you and your works.

When asked which wolf wins, the storyteller always answers: "The one you feed...."

Mike Kennedy is a New Zealand Based professional Coach who works with clients wherever they are to help them feed their white wolf and discover their inner wisdom.

His clients deal with change and thrive in environments where most people are reacting in panic, feeding their black wolves.

"I help people find their own clarity. They discover what it is that's important to them, what they really, really want to achieve and what are the most important things for them to focus on. As soon as they find that, it's obvious to them what the best actions moving forward are."

Mike has been helping people find their inner clarity, wisdom and strength since he was 12 years old. He has always had a natural ability in active listening and has been studying techniques through his reading and over two hundred workshops and seminars.

For the last twenty five years, Mike has been a trainer, coach and mentor to people in Australia, New Zealand, US and UK.

Crisis's are dealt with with the client's goals, values and long term objectives in mind. This is called: "Feeding the right Wolf with the end in mind!"

Over the last 5 years, Mike has worked with two separate coaching companies, one in Australia and one in New Zealand. He supported their coaches by training them in competency development and mentoring their case work.

He also coaches and mentors a number of independent coaches, helping them in their professional development. "I love working with people who are going out there helping people feed the right wolf and making a difference to the world!"

Mike and Rose Kennedy have been married for 14 years and have a 12 year old son with Downes Syndrome. "The experience of being a special needs parent has helped me develop strengths and understanding, that no education could have given me!" says Mike. "It's also shown me which wolf I need to feed!"

The Spice Girls sang that song: 'Tell me what you want - tell me what you really, really want!' "Nobody ever asked you that question as you were growing up - it was all about people telling you what they wanted from you!" Mike encourages people to find out 'What they really, really want'

"Something amazing happens when someone asks you that question - it's usually a shock, and once you get past the mistrust and looking for where the catch is, then the magic happens! Its then you realise the benefits of feeding the white wolf!"

Peter Drucker says that: "Management by objectives works if you first think through your objectives. Ninety percent of the time you haven't."

That's how Mike sees his role - getting people clear about their objectives: "If my clients have clarity of intention, the job is half way done! The right wolf then gets the food it needs"

And that's the sort of coach Mike Kennedy is - wide in experience and reading. He keeps his client's focused on what's important to them achieving their goals.

"People learn how to manage their wolves around me!- That's the kind of coach I am."
