Bio
Francesco Fiori
I had the pleasure of being coached by James after weeks of failing interviews and he was able to quickly identify and address the areas where I needed improvement. James has a long experience as a manager, is an excellent listener and communicator, and was able to tailor his coaching to my specific needs and concerns. He provided valuable feedback and practical advice on how to effectively answer common interview questions, and how to present myself as a strong candidate. James is a dedicated and skilled coach who genuinely cares about helping others succeed, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their interview or management skills.

As an engineer I always looked forward to my one-to-ones with James, where I felt I could be open and honest as well as look forward to constructive feedback. His highly empathetic approach and ability to silently lead meant that he had a great influence on myself and my colleagues; always pushing for us to be the best versions of ourselves. I know that any person or team managed by James is in great hands.
