Over five years ago, James started training our company of fewer than 30 employees on how to work better as a team during a critical and stressful time of scaling the company. Today, we are 100 strong, and each new team member re-watches James’s trainings. His trainings are engaging and sticky; our team remembers and follows his principles. On a personal front, James has worked with me directly in becoming a more focused and impactful CEO. I can’t recommend him enough!
