Confidence
and Presence

We deliver workshops drawing from theatre school, voice coaching, group dynamics and professional storytelling to help you build your confidence and presence. Being on your feet in front of a group fazes some - but it's a crucial skill. And building your speaking presence does more than help when you're in front of a group: it helps in a busy, noisy room, too.

Getting Things Done
Though Others

Multiply your effectiveness by working with and through others - up, down and sideways. Expertise got you this far - others will carry you onwards. It's about Building Rapport. Understanding Behaviour. Adapting to Circumstance. Delegating. Outsourcing. Negotiating. And Handling the Difficult Stuff with Finesse.

Our Clients Say

"Jim is a fantastic coach. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about what motivates you, and takes the time to really listen and understand your concerns. While he probably knows what is probably bothering you or clogging you, he walks you through the steps that makes it a process of self-discovery. This is ultimately the most effective way, rather than being told what he thinks is the answer. I find working with Jim a real pleasure and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone."

— MA, Airline Strategy Executive, London

"We've used many training consultants in the past but Jim was the first to really become 'part of the team'. I'm convinced that Jim's unique approach and the interactive exercises he put together did more to deliver learning than any amount of slideware could possibly have done."

— David T, Director, Global Consulting Firm, London
