Welcome to Avril Henry

Since 2003, Avril transformed her career from an extensive, award winning corporate experience into the hugely successful and widely popular keynote speaker, author and corporate motivator that she is today.

Forming Avril Henry Pty Ltd as a way to consolidate all her experience and skills under one identity, Avril has taken her organisation to the next level by working with senior leadership teams and employees from organisations such as IBM, Commonwealth Departments of Defence, Education, State Health Departments NSW, Queensland, Victoria, Optus, BHP Billiton, Commonwealth Bank, NAB, IBM, Astra Zeneca, University of Western Sydney and many more.

Senior management can lead employees on how to communicate more effectively with one another. But first, senior management must learn how to do this themselves. Keynote and workshop topics from Avril such as "Leading in Challenging Times", "Motivating, Managing & Surviving Different Generations at Work", "Communicating Positively", "Winning Together Teamwork", "Resolving Conflict Constructively" and "The Business Case for Diversity" will introduce senior management to a greater understanding of how to motivate and manage all employees to interact with each other and management more effectively.

Many participants have attended our programs in 2011 and 2012 and have provided extremely positive feedback. Their comments included:

“Treat yourself to an exceptionally well facilitated individual review. Your personal journey to the point of commencing this course makes you who you are today. This program will help you determine who you wish to be tomorrow.”

“… from the outset it was obvious this would be different from any other leadership course I had been on. It took a holistic approach to being a good leader and person and the examples and advice on how to put the things we learnt into practice were very good. I have already changed the way I function at work and seen immediate results.”

“The GLAM program is an opportunity for me to look at the whole of my life and assess it and allow me to improve who I am and how I act in all facets of my life. I'm a better wife, mother, worker and business owner from this course.”

“This workshop is relevant in both the workplace and in personal life and is relevant to everyone, not just up and coming managers. All topics have a clear and logical approach and can be put to use immediately.”

“Leadership is not easy. But Avril makes it easy by dissecting it and presenting it in a way that makes sense: from understanding oneself and others and leading all different kinds of people to building one's own brand and then doing all that with balance in mind.”

“The program has given me personal insight and strategies & tools into being more effective across many aspects including career and home. It has inspired me to step up to another level both in my career and as a person.”

“It was inspiring and really, really motivating – every time I got back to work it was an explosion of me talking about what I learnt. I now feel OK to be out there and say what I think.”

“I am now motivated and inspired to change. I now have the confidence to move on to try something different and to step out of my comfort zone.”

“Inspired to go after my career goals and now I understand that I can have a successful career and be a good mother at the same time. Change has to begin somewhere and I know now that it is with me.”
