KIM WHITE
Every journey begins with a first step. With a background in sales, marketing, strategy and general management I bring a well proven big picture capability to assist you take your business or organisation from strength to strength. Employers and clients included Tower Trust, Prudential, AMP, Countrywide Bank, Trustees Executors, Jacques Martin, Tower Retirement and Investmentlink NZ. For eight years I was been involved heavily in the Non-Profit sector assisting with management, fund raising, project management, leadership training and recently developing my own personal development and motivation business Dreaming with Purpose.Initially offering Conferences, workshops and business mentoring for all those out there with dreams and ideas who want a mechanism to start bringing these ideas to life. My desire to help people step out in their dreams spurred me to step out on one of my own – In March 2013 I initiated, organised and completed a 300km, 9-day kayak adventure from Auckland to Tauranga, around a challenging part of the NZ coastline to help raise funds for several start-up charities. Two years ago, The Winners Circle was established with Patrick, providing a range of services to SME’s and Corporate clients |

PATRICK CORNA
I was born into a family of entrepreneurs, and at the age of 24 started my first business targeting a niche market within the motorsport industry. Within a year my company’s logo graced the sides of a formula one team. This set the platform for the adventure that has been my career both in South Africa and New Zealand. After I had owned a number of businesses, I entered the corporate world, working my way through a variety of roles, in various industries, including being a Dealer Manager and culminating in a General Manager’s role in the Recruitment Industry. I moved out of the Corporate and into the Business Services sector, initially contracting as a Business Development Coach with the Results Group, before establishing PAX EMPOWER to equip clients to build high performance businesses and teams, whilst having fun. This was followed by PhoneIT New Zealand Ltd, PS Tech Ltd and later in 2011 TyreTrend, Webimage and MPS Pegasus. During my career I have had the privilege and pleasure of working alongside, and learning from, a range of high achievers, both within the SME and Corporate Sectors in various industries. I have also enjoyed being team manager of a Kiwi Under 21 TAG team, which won silver in the World Cup, as well as being part of a group of Kayakers who kayaked from Auckland to Tauranga, to raise money for local charities. In all my roles I have prided myself on delivering the best possible service to my clients, and I believe I have a raft of experience on which to draw on and share with clients. |
What We Believe:
Decisions:
Pressure and lack of clear guidelines lead to poor decision making. We have a range of tools that help remove the fog around clear decision making
Enjoyment:
Work should be fun! Sometimes its hard to recall why you started this journey, it feels so long ago, and somehow you have allowed your joy to be eroded! It does not have to be like this, it's time to recapture the fun and enjoy work - Why not, you spend a huge part of your life there?

Family:
We all strive for a healthy work/life balance, balancing our needs with the needs of our family and business. Recognizing the importance of each element and holding this focus during times of stress can be very challenging.
Growing:
How can something good create so many headaches? Growing can stretch your resources, as well as impact on other aspects such as health and family. Managing sustainable growth is the key, as well as being able to say no.
Health:
Healthy staff, including you, depends on factors such as your nutrition, but more importantly depends on your and your staff members perception of self-worth and self-image.

Profitability:
It can be difficult to maintain sustainable profit margins when faced with customers demanding discounts, staff wanting pay raises, increasing costs, the list sometimes feels endless. There are ways of managing and exceeding your customers expectations, allowing them to feel like they have received value for their money
