Coaching

Ara, thank you so much for your help with the coaching. You helped me identify skills and work experience that I would have not considered important. Moreover, you helped me feel confident. You are definitely an expert!

I was so appreciative of your taking time out of your busy schedule to judge the event for us. I was mesmerized by your ability to give the students some of the most valuable feedback I have ever heard from any judge in a speaking competition. The students felt your feedback alone made the competition well worth their time. As a chair and professor in the business environment, namely information systems and business communication, I found your input and astute observation and critique to far exceed anything I have ever had the privilege of hearing in the public speaking arena. Again, thank you for your expertise and input. You made a lasting impression on many young lives that will last them a lifetime.

Ara, you take professionalism to its highest level. Thank you for coaching me through my job search process and preparing me to reach my fullest employment potential. From writing my resume and identifying my unique skills to interviews and acceptance letters, your attention to detail and encouraging words have been vital to my success. Again thank you for your valuable time and patience with me.

If I had to name one factor that enabled me to take my career to the next level, I would have to say it was the expertise you brought to the table for our several consultations. You are frankly worth far more than you charged and I firmly believe your input was far more helpful to me than any other input I had received up to that point. I will definitely turn to you again and refer my friends to you when the occasion requires. I cannot thank you enough.

I would highly recommend the professional services and coaching of Ara Norwood. I was first introduced to Ara as a professor at College of the Canyons in Valencia, CA and have since continued to work with him develop my own business and professional career. As a professor, his classes were always a stand out compared to others. His energy, enthusiasm, professionalism and creativity made his lectures a joy to attend. I can honestly say I took ten times more out of Ara’s classes then I did most other college courses. Beyond the classroom, Ara really shines as a business coach. His incredible insight and ideas have helped my business and career immensely. He has tremendous command of many subjects whether it be leadership, entrepreneurship, ethics, negotiation and conflict resolution, etc. Because of this grasp of many topics, Ara is incredibly versatile and helpful as a coach. My business would not be where it is today without the guidance and wisdom of Ara.
