Bio
Wainright Acquoi
I have met, interacted and worked with many young leaders under the age of 20, but James stands out. Working together from being accepted into the Watson Institute and sharing a number of conversations and courses together, James possesses so much wisdom and principles that are quintessential for personal life and success in the professional workforce. I am honored to be a personal friend: sharing firsthand experience of how passionate he is about creating a world where children are protected, equipped and connected to live the future they dream and the grit he has to make this a reality. James is a deal and a young leader par excellence, whom I recommend unreserved.

Ask for a great man and all fingers will point at James. James is incredibly smart, intelligent and wise for a person his age. I have been privileged to work with James over a few projects as well as travel with him. Many things I can say about how excellently well he carries himself as a leader, but this one thing I must say. James knows how to bring out the best in people, work with their skills, personality, and bring out the best in any project or task he is given and appointed to handle. He is a good young leader indeed.
