Why leadership mentoring?

most new or transitioning leaders are overwhelmed.

You got where you are because you've been good at what you do. But now you're facing increasing pressures, competing demands, changing relationships, growing levels of uncertainty - and are concerned about your potential blind spots. 


The solution isn't working harder in ways that leave you stretched and stressed to the point you're not bringing your best to your team. 


Ascent is the leadership mentoring program that will help you stop working from overwhelm and fear and get you the clarity you need on the invisible factors that influence your impact and success. In the process you'll strengthen the core interpersonal skills that set the foundation for every successful leader.

How it works

Book a 30-minute conversation with James

I help new and transitioning leaders in health care and social service organizations increase their capacity to lead a more healing workplace and impact in their community.


If this is you (or someone in your organization) let's connect on a brief 30-minute video conversation. I'll ask a few questions about where you are and where you want to go. You can see what the program is about, and if we both decide it's the right fit we can discuss a next step. If not, there's absolutely no pressure and no obligation.
