New Entrepreneurs

By Georgia Last Updated in Articles on Sep 27, 2013

Many entrepreneurs share common histories of their first year in business, noting their mistakes at the beginning of the business ventures and the lessons they learned – the hard way. 3 Things to Avoid Kathy, a new entrepreneur, shared that her dream was to open a crafts store in her small town. She had graduated from a liberal arts college and wanted to build a business around her artistic talents. She shared her story, noting her mistakes and what she could and should have done to begin her business differently. No money. Kathy had a small savings account, no retirement funds, and no collateral for a possible bank loan. She did not have a financial statement of any kind. No appropriate work space. Kathy began working out of a corner of her garage, which was neither heated nor cooled. No clients. Kathy did not have a social media presence, was.

Defeat the Everyone Else Comes First Syndrone

By Georgia Last Updated in Articles on Sep 20, 2013

Reflect, for a moment, on something you have wanted to do for yourself and let fear get in the way of a positive outcome – one where you chose to let fear get in your way. The following examples illustrate the levels of fear and steps you can take to overcome them. Picture the following scenes: Mild “Everyone Else Comes First” Syndrome You have found an online painting course you would love to take, but that’s when the kids play soccer. A “but” statement is the most frequent first response. What to Do: Because you are really interested in this course, you begin to explore alternatives and ask questions. Is the course taped or on video? Are there makeup sessions? Can I carpool for soccer and have my spouse rotate times with me? Is the course repeated at a time when school sports are not being played? The point is.

By Georgia Last Updated in Blogs on Sep 19, 2013

Personal achievement is challenging for many adults, especially those who want to move forward. When Mama is not there to nudge, snap and prod us into doing things, as adults, we need to recognize our barriers and get the 800-pound gorilla out of the room. I would like to share with you 3 of the biggest barriers to achievement. These are procrastination, lack of focus and lack of consistency. What do you think?

Initiative

By Georgia Last Updated in Blogs on Sep 1, 2013

Initiative is a word typically used to describe a positive event. As we reach adulthood, we have dreams of how we may shape our future. Unfortunately, too many people love to pour cold water on our dreams, talking about all of the reasons why our ideas will not work. There are three steps we can use to take ownership of initiative, in spite of the naysayers. STEP 1: Recognize it! Do we know initiative when we see it? Let’s look at the following examples: When a child builds a sand castle on his own for the very first time, how do we respond? Do we giggle because it is lopsided, or mention all the ways it could have been built better? Or do we take pictures and praise the child for using his imagination in building something all alone? When an employee cleans up a spill in the office, which.

Over the months I worked with Georgia I found she has a wonderful ability to listen deeply and create valuable feedback. She is flexible in meeting me where I am and expounding on my strengths and drawing out my lesser abilities to be strengthened.

Georgia is consummate professional, she is direct, succinct and has years of experience in business and management and am grateful she has shared this through her books as well as her coaching! Georgia is totally dedicated to her clients success and growth and goes the extra miles with support.

I would recommend Georgia to anyone for business coaching of any kind.

If you are looking for direction in your career, or want validation you are moving in the right direction, you need to call Georgia Day. I have known Georgia for over seven years now and jump at any opportunity to collaborate with her.

Georgia is one amazing woman who has the innate ability to hone in on your talents, skills, abilities and help you see them for what they are. She is an exceptional professional and personal coach that is more concerned about what you need to hear than how you will feel when you hear it. She is direct but gentle in her approach while telling you the way “it is”. She will help you get a new perspective right when you need it and motivate you in ways that will put success in your path with a capital S.

Working with Georgia has enriched my life. She started out as my collaborator and quickly became my coach. She is now the first person I call when I need to validate my professional direction or evaluate my life balance. She will enrich your life. She will change your life. She will help you make a difference.

Georgia is the type of person you definitely want in your corner. She has great instincts and wisdom and puts it to use with skill and finesse. I may not always WANT to talk to her but I have learned I should wisely embrace the opportunity. “Nothing changes if nothing changes”! Georgia is adept at getting me to examine where I need to grow – I may not want to face it at the time and I often find myself asking how did she figure that out. If you want to grow beyond your own “perceived limitations”‘ talk with Georgia and you’ll find what is most important to you and the power and ability to carry it out.

I met Georgia Day, President of Kamama Consultancy, after having observed the results of her work with several other people. Lacking growth opportunities in my previous position, I had decided that now was the perfect time to update my career portfolio and create a resume which would help me transition into a new industry; I knew that Georgia was the perfect person for the job. She clearly explained the process, time frame and anticipated results. At the end of the project, I had a professional biographical sketch, qualitative resume, and direction for my next steps.

I found Georgia to be an effective listener, positive, and confident in my ability to succeed. She is ethical, committed, creative, empowering, and totally focused on her clients’ success. I now have a new job, more aligned with where I would like my career to be and I highly recommend her.

I have had a wonderful experience working with Georgia Day. She is very knowledgeable and experienced. She helped guide me through the process of professional ideas and thoughts for life’s choices. She is particularly skilled with authorship and entrepreneurship. I have found her to be a valuable resource and is a “must go to” professional. She is very responsive and someone that I count on for advice and suggestions. I have found none better.

Words cannot express how much it means for you to believe in me! I see your potential and believe strongly in you, so to have it reversed…thank you, thank you.

Georgia Day is a consummate professional with many areas of expertise. From job development, personal skills development, resumes building, speaking, mentoring/coaching and writing, she does it all and to such a level she is a highly sought leader in many fields. Her integrity is her calling card: If Georgia commits to a project, it will be completed on or before the deadline. The finished product will always exceed the team’s expectations. As a strong leader, she often trains successors while continuously enhancing her skill sets. Her big-hearted integrity is beyond reproach and I am proud to call her my friend and business associate.

Georgia is dedicated to helping her clients achieve great success through self-promotion. She has an amazing way of making one realize their self-worth and bringing them to a higher-level of thinking. Georgia has been a true inspiration and motivator for me and I would recommend her to anyone!
