This was followed by postgraduate studies in business administration at Bristol before he immigrated to Australia in 1966. He then undertook several further studies in organizational and applied psychology and diagnostic profiling.
His fifty-year career has been split evenly between corporate executive life and management consulting. He was a human resources executive in three multinational corporations based in Melbourne before switching midcareer to management consulting and specializing in career counseling, executive coaching, and team effectiveness. His clients have been multinational corporations, professional service firms, large corporations, and individuals throughout the Asia-Pacific region, which he has traveled extensively.
In the nature of his work, he has been deeply involved in stress counseling and in mentoring executives and professionals, which gave him the experience and inspiration to write this book in the hope that (in addition to providing a good read) it may help its readers to manage the increasing stress, which we all encounter in our lives, with more confidence.
James has been married to his wife, Tatiana, for forty-five years and is the proud father of two children and four grandchildren, who live in Salt Lake City, USA, and in Sydney, Australia. In England, he lived in Warwickshire and Wiltshire. In Australia, he initially lived in Hobart and, since 1971, in Melbourne. He describes his main hobbies as golf, yoga, bush-walking, music, travel, and bridge.view less
