Affirmotive's Heide McConkey is a Professional Counsellor, Consultant and Sexologist with extensive professional experience. Heide specializes in consulting private persons, executives, and corporate or small business employers and employees.

Affirmotive's consulting and coaching is designed to develop creativity, and successful skills to master assertive communication, conflict resolution, stress management, anger control, team building, dealing with anxiety, shyness, lowered moods, self esteem issues, and achieving professional and personal goals.

Our focus is to enhance performance and productivity by improving personal well being, energy, and emotional fitness. We approach the skill of problem solving in a new creative way and bring out your personal best.

Our difference lies in the strength of applying voice and body dialogue to coaching, counselling, and consulting. Voice and Body dialogue is a powerful transformational technique which increases self awareness, and can achieve a permanent separation from undesired, inhibiting, self-limiting, and unproductive part personalities, or selves.

Voice Dialogue is a fast, safe, and proven technique, working deep, and achieving lasting changes, to thinking, feeling and behaving.

Commonly the executive or private person is faced with a problem for which they have to find a solution.

This very behaviour is problem driven. The focus is on the problem itself, and reflects very much a current culture, that has often led to a fear of failure or avoidance.

A study conducted by Human Synergist involving 35,000 managers in Australia and New Zealand confirmed that the predominant style of management identified was avoidance. It's main characteristics were identified as a fear of failure.

Studies also confirm that relationships affect performance, and that companies whose employees have high morale and a sense of belonging, show twice the return on capital than those whose employees dislike where they work.
