My 3rd grade teacher once told my parents “James is mischievous, cheeky and often distracted. But he also has an uncanny ability to connect and empathize with every student in our class.” She was right…. I’m still cheeky 😉. But what I love most is finding ways to add value to others and create meaning in their life, their teams and leadership groups. An internationally published author, educator and successful business owner, my proudest achievements are still found in assisting those around me discover their inner passion and go on to create incredible journeys. Working in the sports and coaching industries for the last 25 years has been an amazing ride. Leadership and personal development within organisations is my current journey.
