How it started
After an international career in talent and leadership development working for global companies, including Novo Nordisk Pharmaceuticals and Yahoo!, James co-founded and led several of his own companies, including Strengthscope®, a global talent assessment and consulting company. During this time, James worked with a wide range of companies, including Astra Zeneca, Channel4, Legal and General, John Lewis, Novartis, PhotoBox, Sainsbury’s, Takeda and Tesco, to transform their leadership, performance and culture.
During the past two decades, James has dedicated his career to helping leaders and organizations build thriving workplaces and talent ecosystems to achieve peak performance, innovation and enduring success.
Based on his strong belief in the power of positive leadership and a desire to help leaders build thriving workplaces where people achieve amazing things, enjoy better work lives and help make the world a better place, James established Plexus Leadership.
Why “Plexus Leadership”
A “plexus” is a vital network of vessels or nerves in the human body. It is central to the effective functioning of our body. Just like the critical role leaders play in helping people and organizations thrive, plexuses provide our body with vital information, nutrients and oxygen so we can thrive. They also enable the body to deal with unhealthy waste and toxins, just like leaders need to tackle blockers, energy-drainers and destructive behaviour. As with strong organizational leadership, our plexuses need to be in alignment and functioning effectively to maintain good health.
Our Difference
We unleash innovation, original thinking and novel solutions by helping clients unlock people’s ideas, creativity and collective genius. By facilitating clients to explore new ways of working, using technologies like machine learning and AI, we accelerate business success and help future-proof their business.
We unleash innovation
Our deep expertise in the science of optimal human functioning and positive psychology sets us apart from other consultancies. We apply proprietary and proven techniques to develop positive leadership, high-trust relationships and thriving workplaces.
We use positive psychology to deliver change that lasts
We are value multipliers and measure success by our ability to deliver measurable outcomes for leaders, customers and other stakeholders. We work hard to deliver sustainable value and never sell quick-fix solutions. Using data science and feedback, we track and refine solutions to ensure continuous improvement.
We are value multipliers

They need to sustain their businesses by investing in improving their people, communities and environment. By working together, positive leaders can make the world a better place for all.
We inspire leaders to become a force for positive change
