Meet James Kawski.
Serendipity and synchronicity. There are signposts in our lives that we ignore at our peril. We all are familiar with these inflection points that we have personally experienced. Will you have the tools to recognize the next opportunity when it comes along?
The Founder of HigherARC is like you. He’s crossed those same thresholds. Some of them he’s acted on, some he hasn’t, just like you. But the one thing he’s learned, above all else, there is one differentiator in this world; Persistence.
We discovered a few years ago a framework developed by The High-Performance Institute that had a profound impact on our direction.
In 1982, James Kawski went from cloudy to clear in one week. As a soon-to-be graduate of the Rochester Institute of Technology Electrical Engineering program, he pursued a hunch that a new RIT program in Microelectronic Engineering might need some help. His hunch paid off, and it launched him into a 35-year career; A career that exposed him to the four corners of the world and a spectrum of positions and responsibilities. From manufacturing line engineer to Investor Relations to CEO, he’s pretty much seen it all until it got cloudy again.
Tired of the corporate life, he ventured out, assuming he would find another job. It was the perfect time to hire a coach, a high-performance coach. After this engagement, the path for him became illuminated. This is when, three years ago, HigherARC was born.
HigherARC; the arc of our lives and our careers. How do we elevate on all levels? How do we optimize our lives? High-Performance is the answer.
