About Malcolm Avner

During my (whole lotta) years of helping leaders build profitable, conscious companies, I have been guided by some core beliefs:1. Isolation breeds underperformance. We do better when we are genuinely connected to others.2. Self-Judgment of inadequacy is a predominant cause of discontent and frustration3. A meaningful life springs from the relentless pursuit of truthThe coaching process toward higher self-awareness and accomplishing goals rarely looks like what\'s expected.

Experience

1. Leadership and Executive Coach

   Malcolm Avner, Leadership And Executive Coaching

   Jan 2004 — Present · La Jolla, AZ

   My clients are business owners and organization leaders who are driven to improve professional performance and regain passion for work. Clients are empowered to achieve goals by breaking the barriers of self-defeating behaviors and patterns of thought. Through our work together, clients are able to more efficiently resolve business issues, increase leadership effectiveness, improve communication skills, and shift the culture of an organization. On the personal side, clients acquire knowledge, tools and support that enhance their sense of well-being, personal relationships and life experience.I am often asked what qualifies me to be a coach. The answer begins with the admission that business and life coaching is not something I set out to do as a vocation! I am a coach and highly capable to do this job because of the right combination of external and internal conditions. The external conditions include a body of life experience; business experience; formal education; and personal development programs, mentorships and books. The internal conditions include well-suited talent, passions and intuitive guidance.
