“It has always been a pleasure to work with James. He brings energy, enthusiasm, compassion and focus to his work. He's a team player and an engager of others. He is not deterred by the challenge of change and reaches easily for innovative and ground breaking solutions to bring his best to every situation he encounters.”

James is an excellent coach. He approaches situations/decisions in a very innovative and thoughtful way. He has supported me to find an inner confidence in the workplace that has blossomed over time. He has a very open and compassionate style that
helps one process what is happening at the psychological level, and the relationships with oneself and others. I would highly recommend him as a coach to others.

can be. (Service Improvement Lead,

James is a brilliant coach. He listens to understand and really hears what I say. He is fantastic at playing back my words and distilling them. This gives me great clarity. He asks questions that stop me in my tracks. He has helped every part of my life - my relationships, my Chief Executive role and how I can be my best in the world. My ongoing commitment to our coaching relationships is based on trust and how much I value the time. (CEO, specialist global training provider)
"The best part about the entire coaching was the connect and relationship which I had build with James. Within a few minutes of speaking to James I was put at ease, nerves diminished, and was talking to him like he was an friend/colleague. His gentle style and support have helped me tremendously. There were instances where I myself was able to identify/find solutions to my problems, but it was because of James who kept helping me in exploring myself and identifying the solutions.
Thank you for all your help, it has been fantastic! (Senior Manager, NHS Devon)
I can thoroughly recommend James. He supported me during quite a difficult time and helped with reflective practice, understanding human factors in working within a team and signposted me to tools that I could use going forward. I really appreciated James' reassuring manner and guidance. He helped me comfortable, supported and challenged; this was my first experience of being mentored. I thoroughly recommend James.
