Learning to Soar for Organizations
Take Your Organization to New Heights Through the Four Forces of Life™
How optimized is your operation? How does it work for your employees and teams? James wants to help you find out.
The key is the people. Because when individuals perform better, teams perform better—and business performance reaches great heights.
Continuing James’ aviation analogy, he parallels your operations with the National Airspace System and the airplanes (individuals) flying within. So, when James asks, “Who’s operating in your airspace?” it works on two levels: your know your team and your team knows themselves.
You and your people will find many layers of meaning while attending the keynote or participating in a workshop or coaching. Operations executives will find James’ proven consulting very worthwhile.
Keynote
Meaningful life, like stable flight, doesn’t just happen organically. It is the same with productivity. You have to do the work, but the results are worthwhile. James understands how life can influence productivity, and he approaches both together in his Four Forces of Life™ principle, which is based on the four forces of flight principle in aviation.
You are invited to join James as he recounts his own journey of discovery and understanding, which began during his curiosity-filled childhood where he spent a lot of time in the airport where his father worked. James would later embark on a decades-long career as an air traffic controller, so he knows a thing or two about how things work from the ground up.

Operations Workshop
Workshops begin with ground school and the Four Forces of Life™ keynote, teaching participants how the four forces of flight can relate to how they approach their lives intentionally, ultimately taking them someplace called the Double Positive.
Participants learn how to plot the complexities of their operational environment and discover the trajectory they want to take in a simple two-axis graph that they can reference when they find themselves “behind the power curve” in challenging operational situations.
After interactive discussions on the Intellectual and Emotional Axes, participants dive into how the operation has its own creators of the four forces, ultimately “Taking Flight” as a team dedicated to intentionally pushing the organization into the Double Positive.
