GMAI Learning Leader Elle Wheeler Recognized with “Leading Through Education Example Award.”

This years 2006 Aveda Institute Summit, hosted by Aveda Institute Minneapolis, honored education professionals from all Aveda Institutes in a very special closing ceremony. The summit, a two day education event that encompassed workshops on classroom and clinic floor management, including presentation and conflict resolution training, finalized with a ceremony focused on learning leaders with an institute director nominated award. According to the award criteria, an educator that leads through education is an educator that consistently demonstrates excellence in classroom and clinic management; they passionately advocate for the development of the student; they act as a role model and mentor to both students and faculty; they remain calm and positive-especially when it is difficult or inconvenient to do so; they live and advocate the Aveda mission and core beliefs; they do the right thing, even if it isn’t popular and they tell the truth with compassion and they consider education a profession and carry themselves accordingly. GMAI Institute Leader and staff submitted a short essay describing how GMAI Learning Leader, Elle Wheeler, demonstrates these qualifications and characteristics. Elle was announced at the summit and an award was accepted in her honor. As part of an ongoing effort to highlight excellence in education for the beauty industry the “leading through education example” serves our learning community by allowing great learning leaders to stand out as positive examples for all educators.


Congratulations Elle!  Everyone at GMAI and the entire Aveda network honors your leadership in education.





Aveda Salon Spa Entrepreneur, Ray Civello from Toronto, visited GMAI for an education workshop on success building and dynamic cutting and styling techniques. Civello also spoke at the November 18th Graduation ceremony. He is internationally respected for his influence on salon and spa development, education and editorial work, and is a leader in the beauty and fashion industry. Civello’s visit was a truly memorable event and part of GMAI’s ongoing mission to enrich future professionals with inspiring educators. Throughout his stay, future professionals shared stories and expressed that they were honored to have such an icon in the beauty industry share wisdom and inspiring passion.

In 1994 Mr. Civello and his family opened Collega. As an Aveda distributor, Collega Inc. is a resource center for salon and spa owners across Canada, providing the best and most current technical and business education, seasonal image trends and wellness/lifestyle education. In 1999, Mr. Civello became vice president of global education for Aveda, where he made significant contributions to the Aveda Global Purefessional™ Program as well as the Master Jam series. In 2001, he served as artistic director and continued his work on Aveda's Seasonal Portfolio Image and Educational Video Collections. His ability to combine the technical foundations of hair styling, creativity and the principles of wellness has greatly influenced the beauty industry.

 



Over 25 salons and spas attended the fourth GMAI Career Fair this fall.

An explosion of exaggerated styles indicative of the modernist pulp fiction era, brought together with the explicative “VA VA VOOM,” was the theme for this fair’s fall fashion show held on October 24th. . The day was certainly full of creative “voom” from all aspects of GMAI as FP’s mixed it up with hard work and extreme enthusiasm.

Whereas the fashion show portion was created by teams from four learning phases in cosmetology (some esthetics FP’s as makeup artists) the whole four hour event presented a mix of inspirations from both the cosmetology AND esthetic teams.  Spa future professionals in the “infinity phase” had their portion of the fair set up in the esthetics clinic area. Each Infinity esthetics FP decorated her spa room with visuals that represented her style and inspiration from the crafts in today’s skin care.

The event consisted of a warm welcome greeting from earth phase FPs in esthetics and cosmetology (AKA “Angels”) a spa rotation, lunch provided by “Organics Togo,” and a fashion show, which was followed by the fair itself. The two hour finale allowed salons and spas an opportunity to represent their businesses at individual booths. Twenty five salons and spas showed up for the event.



The response was phenomenal as Guests of Gary Manuel Aveda Institute and Gary Manuel Salon took part in Citysearch.com’s annual Best of Citysearch poll.

Remarkably, GMAI ranked in the top three for Best Facial. Gary Manuel Salon was voted the editorial winner for Best Salon and, no surprise, Gary Manuel Salon was voted the editorial and audience winner for Color and Highlights.

Voters responded with kind words and wonderful feedback as well. The whole Gary Manuel Team sends out a heartfelt Thanks to everyone who voted. We promise to meet your expectations.

They love working with people and making them look
and feel great.
They are trained with the entire Aveda product line and
the best learning leaders.
They care about beauty and wellness for the world.
They have real salon experience from an Institute founded by organizations known for having the highest quality standards.
They love supporting the community.
