We need a logo design (and accompanying website graphics) for a business being launched providing online professional coaching and mentoring.
Aim is on personal development, to identify tools and strategies for increasing success at work, either as an employee or manager. Content via self reading/study materials or one to one custom support.
Logo should communicate less "teaching" but more "enabling". It's not any agony aunt service but someone that empowers visitors to take action after getting a mentor's point of view or experience in consideration.

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: There are a couple of nice designs offered but with none that completely meet the brief. Please have a look at the included attachment with ideas. The key concepts I want to put across are: achieving your goals together, someone available to help make complex scenarios clear, use other's experience to your benefit.

Requirements

- Logo may be used in the future for counselling / psychotherapy services, so the personal element would be nice to have
Should not have
