Rebecca Shafir Core Four

Core Four Reviews

Rebecca thank you for helping me reach my vision of my optimal self. Being the CEO of me has put me in control of accounting for my time and managing distraction. I never thought I’d be living what we worked so hard to achieve.

We’ve scored with your Core Coaching! The team is producing great results even with the recent challenges (Covid). Establishing trust early in the year allowed us to work remotely together. Thanks for your hard work in keeping us strong and COREageous.

Still rocking it despite Covid!! Keeping up with my calendar, sleep, planning, etc. So organized at work. I even handled another run-in with the team leader who over-stepped her boundaries. It’s a great feeling to have this kind of control.
Thank you Rebecca.

Core Four Reviews

Rebecca, many thanks for getting to the root of my procrastination!  I left every session eager and motivated to get stuff done. Your 80/20 is the “bee’s knees!” I got the promotion, I’m happier now and less stressed, now that I’m more efficient. Your methods have also helped my son who is a lot like me! David S. Sudbury, MA

Core Four Reviews

I wanted to get back to you and let you know your self-leadership work with me has paid off. I continue to work on my focus, saying “no” and keeping to the schedule. We are meeting deadline and our angels are pleased with the turn-around. Every young founder should take your COREageous coaching to sharpen their game. COREageously yours, Devon P. Portsmouth, NH

Core Four Reviews

Thank you Becky! Your CORE four coaching presentation to my staff was awesome! They are already moving forward and supporting each other. The payoff is with the communication on the job and the speed in which we are moving along.  We are already anticipating our check up session in December. Ron B. Chicago, Illionois

Core Four Reviews

After working with more than a few startup coaches, your guidance was the most productive. I’d say that what helped me the most was how you helped me manage my distractions. I still do my concentration exercises everyday and WOW what a difference. Thank you and Happy New Year! Joe V. Boston, MA

Core Four Reviews

The Core Four coaching gave me what my mountain of self-help books couldn’t. I’d still be looking for management gurus and loading up on meds if it wasn’t for you. I’ve “got core” and I’m moving forward thanks to you Becky. Evan G. Boston, MA

Core Four Reviews

Rebecca, your Core Coaching enabled me to take on some pretty scary challenges with this startup. Probably the most helpful was the emotional control piece. For me, getting my thinking brain in control of my emotional brain was the real game changer for me and my new business. I’m making better decisions and happier for it! Dave B. Providence, RI

Core Four Reviews

Courage I had, Core I didn’t have. Your core training helped me get back on track with the grunt work needed to get my pet care business off the ground. It’s been 4 months now, and I’m on time, on target with my to-do list, and in the black for the first time! Thank you Rebecca! I will keep you updated with more boasting to come. Larry D. Providence , RI

Core Four Reviews

Your COREageous core training last month was a “jumpstarter” for my staff. We all agree that the results are paying off big time – even our customers notice the greater efficiency. Most appreciated was the segment on new ways to manage anxiety and procrastination. Other speakers have given us some good tips, but making it happen is what you did for us. Procrastination lost us over a million dollars last year, so we are 80/20 in 2015! Dean B. Cambridge

Core Four Reviews

Hello Rebecca, You’ve been a huge positive influence on me and my progress!! I’m thankful for you! It’s all about CORE! I’m also using what I’ve learned from you and am helping my clients to be more productive. Jerri Toronto, Canada

Core Four Reviews

Becky, from the start I knew you could help me and you have…immensely! I’ve tried other coaches, but you understood me best. My new skills and routines have stuck and there’s no going back. Many thanks again. Rita C. Dallas, TX

Core Four Reviews

Thank you for coming to our Future Entrepreneurs conference last week. Your presentation and mini-coaching gave our students lots to work with. The biggest takeaway and eye-opener for our group was how powerful one’s vocal image is to convincing investors. When money is tight, the voice must be right! Prof. Donald G.

Core Four Reviews

Your Core Four hit all the right targets for our team. Best of all were the new ways for handling the stress and for getting things done – done well and on time! Jay L. and My Associates Cambridge, MA

Core Four Reviews

Rebecca, after so many years on meds that didn’t work, your Core Four approach was a relief. Your coaching changed my brain naturally, and even though I still get distracted, at the end of the day I’m getting more done. Karyn M. Weston, MA

Core Four Reviews

Rebecca, thank you for working with Walter. You saved our business and he feels so much better about himself when he’s meeting deadlines.Love the 80/20! Dierdre J. Boston, MA

Working with you has been life changing. Your “core” work has paid off, not only for my business but for my family. It’s great to have the confidence and mental stamina to stay productive. Dan H. Arlington, MA

Core Four Executive Function Coaching

for those with ADD/ADHD, Attention Deficit Traits, Executive Functioning difficulties or any self-starter wanting to be more productive and efficient. 

I have over 30 years of experience helping business people and entrepreneurs with and without ADD/ADHD move forward with their projects.

The Core Four method trains the four skills and routines needed to succeed as  a business professional or entrepreneur:

  • Emotional flexibility
  • Focus and Follow Through
  • Communication Excellence
  • SharkReadiness

We start with a 90-minute interview (in person or via Zoom) and build a customized plan designed with your personal objectives in mind. Sessions are scheduled as needed. Sessions range from 15-minute check-in sessions to 60-minute working sessions.

Your objectives may include:

  • Managing Procrastination
  • Emotional Self-regulation
  • Improving Attention, Focus, Learning and Memory
  • Leadership skills
  • Time Management
  • Planning and Prioritizing
  • Getting Started and Following Through
  • Mindful Listening
  • Communication to Attract Customers and Funding

Sessions are offered by phone or Zoom.  Call (781) 864-0180  or Contact Rebecca for a complimentary inquiry to learn more about Core Coaching.

Key Take Aways:

  • which mental and physical exercises to use to best reveal your best vocal image
  • what verbal and non-verbal dynamics best augment your style and personality and which to do away with
  • Specific ways to practice these techniques and how burn them into muscle memory

Speaking with Power and Persuasion: Voice Coaching

Your voice speaks volumes about you, more than what you have to say. In 8 seconds or less your average prospect will determine whether or not you are worthy of their continued attention and investment. The essence of trust, motivation, persuasion and passion are carried by the sound of your voice, the clarity of your speech and how you move.

Why sabotage yourself, your product or your brand with a lackluster delivery? Rebecca will teach you or your group the techniques used by political candidates, radio/TV personalities and the top sales pros in the country.

Here’s how it works:

Groups:
There is a range of customized approaches. For example, each student can obtain a personal baseline assessment (see below). Coaching is interactive in a lecture/demonstration/application format. Each student gets one-on-one coaching in front of the other class members or in private. Sessions can range from 2 – 4 hour sessions with a follow session for maximum benefit. Fees are based on the size of the group and services requested.

Individuals:

  1. Baseline session – assesses one’s current level of presentation skill, identifies personal objectives, and analyzes audience feedback, review of videos (if available), a baseline recording and voice analysis.
  2. Coaching sessions (in person, by phone or Zoom) per hour 1-2 times a week or once every other week depending on deadlines for improvement. Consistency is key! The average numbers of sessions are 4-8.
