"James supported me and others in my business through both coaching and training sessions. I can't recommend him more highly. James is astute, insightful and highly experienced and skilled at what he does. He provides the ideal balance of support and challenge and always had great ideas on how to approach different issues or work in different ways across all areas of the business. Working with James was always a joy and he made us all better at what we do."

"Working with James on how better to communicate to larger groups and sponsors has been the best training I have done for years. James has such a good and straight forward way of getting to the root of any issue. James has helped me think clearly through scenarios to enhance my ability to get my message across. The sessions have been invaluable and something I would recommend for anybody wanting to improve how they interact with people."

"Working with James has been a total game-changer. From day one, his coaching was spot on — practical, relevant, and tailored to exactly what I needed.  Whether it was handling media, prepping for a big presentation, or just finding the right words, every session made an immediate impact.

 

What stood out most was that it wasn’t just about learning techniques. It was about building a deeper understanding of my strengths, and how I can communicate with real purpose. That shift has made me feel more confident, clear, and authentic. 

 

The results came fast and have lasted. Now I step into any situation with a stronger voice and a clear sense of who I am as a leader."

Working with James was a game-changer. His insights and coaching helped me cut through the corporate jargon and find clarity in how I communicate. One moment that really stuck with me was his encouragement to speak like a human — to be authentic, not a corporate machine. That shift has made a real difference in how I connect and lead. His guidance is invaluable, and I’d recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their impact.

Rikki Archibald

​Managing Director, Sena Consulting Seville Spain

"I’ve been working with James as my business coach for the past five months, completing ten sessions together, and the impact has been incredible. He has completely changed the way I think about my business and myself. With his guidance, I’ve gained clarity on exactly what I want to offer, what truly excites me, and how to package it in a way that connects with the public.

​

James has also helped me overcome impostor syndrome, and as a result I’ve built a huge amount of confidence in both myself and the work that I do. I always leave our sessions with practical insights and a renewed sense of direction. I couldn’t recommend him more highly to anyone wanting to grow not only their business, but also their confidence as a business owner."

"Being new to a C-suite role, James was able to challenge me to bring greater clarity and consistency in when and what I communicate that has helped me build trust and maintain positive working relationships with staff across the organisation, but he also validated the preparation and actions I have taken to be in a position to have something meaningful to share."

Huia Adkins

Executive Advisor Sustainability

GHD, Perth Australia

"This coaching journey has been a useful process in uncovering what I really want and how I hold myself back from achieving it. James has been a great guide and advocate supporting me and asking me the tough questions to help me to go deeper and uncover my purpose. He has held me accountable for doing the work and showing up in each session being prepared to trust and take the next steps even when the destination isn’t always clear.

Working with James is interesting and challenging in all the right ways. James is a wonderful advocate and has truly backed me to be big and bold and embrace my gifts. James is really interested in people and their stories and has a natural gift to help people realise their own potential and go after it. I have no hesitation in recommending James if you are ready to examine what isn’t working and are prepared to step into your own potential."
