Why work with me

Unlock Potential. Build Real Leadership. Drive Lasting Success.

People looking to advance their careers often encounter limited opportunities to develop the skills necessary for career advancement. Teams face challenges with inconsistent leadership, which leads to inefficiencies and disengagement. Meanwhile, organizations frequently rely on generic training programs that fail to address real-world needs.

In today’s competitive landscape, staffing shortages, high turnover, and skill gaps only intensify these issues. Without targeted, practical, and experience-based training, both individuals and organizations struggle to grow, leaving potential untapped and putting long-term success at risk.

Flexible Education That Works for You!

We believe education shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all or only available in traditional settings. That’s why we champion informal and non-traditional education — because it’s adaptable, accessible, and effective. From community-based workshops to workplace coaching, we create learning environments that serve your needs and drive real results. Here are some of the benefits that you can expect from partnering with Air Venture Assets:

Why work with me

Iris R. Hunter, PhD, M. Ed.

I’ve spent over 25 years in leadership roles with national nonprofits and over a decade as a home care agency owner. I understand firsthand the stress of meeting goals with limited resources and the challenge of building a dependable, skilled team. I’ve seen the transformative power of education when used the right way and I bring that insight to every client I serve.

If the only thing that’s keeping you from advancing to the next level is education and training, here’s your opportunity to make it happen. Likewise, if you are an employer and the only thing that’s keeping you from advancing a well deserving employee, is the fact that they lack leadership experience, let me help you get there.
