International Connections

 

 The ImageMaker, Inc. has a broad range of international connections. 

They range from The Academy of Holism and Inner Wellness International, co-founded by  Dr. Joyce M. Knudsen and Mr. Desmond Chan – to teaching many international students, to a visit to Hong Kong where she presented four seminars in six days about the great and growing opportunities in the field of image consulting.

While in Hong Kong, Dr. Knudsen conducted seminars for small groups and also addressed large ones.

Everyone who had the opportunity to hear and work with Dr. Knudsen was impressed with the scope of her expertise in guiding people seeking to enter the growing field of image consulting.

Mr. Chan summarized it this way:  (click arrow button):

10 August, 2006

“Dr.Joyce, the one who encouraged me to run,
To run towards my dreams with courage and fun.
She mentors, she shares, most importantly she cares,
receiving appreciation from none.
This is the ambassador who has planted mentees worldwide and especially this one.

Since August 2002, Desmond then a mentee, then a partner, now family,
With Dr. Joyce's help, a chapter was born and the industry is strong.
As strong as our inner strength while our passions go on,
No matter if it's day or night, Desmond and Joyce fight for the right,
With our true partnership that wins the hearts of others with all our might.

Dr Knudsen, this poem signifies the success of my firm’s recent new development and the fourth anniversary of our partnership. Myself and Image de Monde are so proud of being your Sole Representative in Asia and we will continue our journey of Holistic Image Perfection for our clients in both the East and West. Thank you for bringing all these various color systems, your latest research, and image surveys to us and for continually giving Image de Monde a strong arm to set the standard in the industry. Without you, this may not have been accomplished.

Our heartfelt thanks to you on behalf of my hundred mentees,  my firm, and the industry.”

Dr. Joyce, You always have my support and this quote comes from my heart.

-- Desmond Chan, AICI, CIP

A Comment From A Meeting With A Well-Known Hong Kong Lyricist and Theatre Critic

Chris Shum

Dr. Knudsen, herself, is a good model of being an image consultant: caring, kind hearted, warm, open-minded.

I am very impressed.  If you want to know more about yourself, her class is the first choice."

Mentoring Always Available To You

This always-available personal mentoring is the invaluable "extra dimension" of  training from the ImageMaker -- the dimension that sets it apart.

This is what one student had to say about this dimension.

I want you to know how fortunate I feel to have you as my mentor.  I was desperately looking for someone who could relate with what I was interested in.  Initially, I was under the impression that learning via long distance may not be a good idea, but trusting in you, I went ahead.

I am now aware that distance does not matter; what matters is the relationship between mentor and student.  You have built within such a short period the kind of relationship that only a very experienced mentor can build.

Besides providing invaluable advice, a mentor should always be approachable.  Your are someone who is willing to listen to my every need.
