James Stanbridge I believe should win the best-supporting actor in the Zoom & Facebook Oscars 🥇 James took the -endemic out of Pan and created such a supported and safe online space for so many Zoom and FB live newbies including my good self. His extensive knowledge and experience on these platforms saved both me and my music academy live exam recordings which he managed to wave his magic MAC wand and locate them for me. He is not only highly professional, cool, and collected but has such a warm and "nothing is a problem" approach that can calm even the most freaked out teachers! I do hold myself responsible for helping him perfect that "no honestly, you are not bothering me at all look". Thank you, James, you are my MAC-MAN with extra cheese!

James Stanbridge has offered incredible coaching on how to take my small business to the next level. He has formulated a step by step plan and given me clear vision on how to go about and achieve my goals. James has the ability to understand where I am at and how to make myself more time efficient and has sourced tools that will lighten the workload so that I can concentrate on what I do best. Amazing advice from a true entrepreneurial yet humble coach.

Great, clear information from James today on using Zoom. This will be so useful in helping me to enable a gathering of people to mourn the death of a loved one and celebrate their life whilst attended funerals are not permitted in my area. Many thanks James.

I have just completed a one hour coaching session on zoom with James and 23 others. What a fantastic introduction! James is calm and informative and puts everyone at ease - no matter their technical abilities. HUGE THANKS!

Encouraging, helpful approach. Very ready to answer questions and help with technological challenges and possibilities with online music teaching.

James is the most calm, clear and thoughtful of coaches on all aspects of Zoom. I had a really illuminating 2 hours which went by soooo quickly!

I just did an excellent Zoom workshop with James, who is both approachable and knowledgeable. I learned a lot and James explains everything in a really clear, easy to understand way and provides lots of valuable information. I would recommend James without hesitation.

Whenever I have an issue with my laptop, James at Purpose Bridge is my go to person. He makes the complex simple, and gives very clear instructions that anybody could follow. If anyone asks me for tech support, he’s absolutely the person I would recommend.

James has been my go to guy for several years now. Whenever I am looking for some clear, concise advice, he is the guy I call. What I particularly like about James is that he rarely provides the expected advice and isn’t afraid to point the finger back at me and challenge me to change or solve a problem. He is exactly what I look for in a coach – bucket loads of professional and life experiences, personable and approachable and, above all, invariably able to provide exactly the motivation I need.

"I have have had coaching with James Stanbridge for a few years now. He is an extremely easy person to relate to. He is straight to the point but understanding and sympathetic. I have grown not only on a personal level with his coaching but in my strategies to do with my Business. He is a great mentor I feel with such an extensive experience in the work place in so many different areas he is able to assist me get my full potential and realise the goals I have in place. He has helped me enormously and I would absolutely recommend him." https://www.indigoprawn.com

A truly beneficial experience. James can listen without prejudice and apply skills that really help.

Experienced, articulate and warm. Will go out of his way to get your the answers and help you need. Highly recommend!

I am very grateful to James for being a fantastic coach and mentor to me. Since the first time we met, I was able to connect with James and build a sense of trust that made it very easy to work together. As a coach, James has been instrumental in helping me recognise patterns, understand my strengths, passions and build the next steps in my career and future. In addition to being a skillful coach, he also has an intuitive gift and ability to connect the dots to help his clients gain clarity and make decisions. I am lucky to have found James and strongly recommend him as a life coach.

Really liked James’ relaxed, thorough, informative teaching style. Gave me confidence and skills to start my Online teaching (music). Very grateful. Thank you!

James has a great combo of techy teaching ability with coaching skills, which meant that he saw when I needed to just breathe, listened closely and taught me what I needed to know in a way that didn't overwhelm and was fabulously helpful. Thank you James!

Did a Zoom workshop with James, lots of insight and clear instruction and great value for money, James is a great communicator, got a zoom party this weekend can not wait to use it for work.

There aren’t the words to describe how amazing James is. He took me from a place where I was unsure about where I was going in life and mentored me to find my path. His incredible guidance, patience and kindness completely changed my path and brought me success both personally and professionally. This man actually CAN help you turn your life around and get the very best out of every area of your life. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

James brings together a rare combination of technological know-how, combined with actual business experience, to _really_ solve your business problems. We’ve worked with tech programmers who created complex but ineffective systems in a vacuum, and we’ve worked with business consultants who weren't actually able to do the work. James brings this all together, effectively understanding the business application and end goal of using the right technology. He’s had over 20 years of corporate technical experience at top tech companies like Microsoft and Oracle, but he’s also taken a vested interest in helping start-ups with limited resources develop and scale. We’re a client that is a start-up, and having James on board to build our systems has laid a solid foundation for our future. He also puts himself in your shoes, as the business owner, to answer the ‘what do I really need to create value’ question. James built our CRM system using Hubspot and other online tools - it’s not just his ability to create the right software ecosystem that makes him effective, but ultimately the wealth of business experience he uses to inform those choices.

Working with Purposebridge has been an absolute pleasure. The quality of service, depth of knowledge and flexibility to get the best for our organisation has been highly commendable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Purposebridge!

"James has been a wonderful advisor and supporter of The Change School, and a dear friend. His gentle inquiry, generous advice and reflective counsel has been invaluable for our personal and professional growth – combining a wealth of experience, knowledge and reflective discussion. I am grateful for the genuine connection, curiosity and wit he lends to every conversation – undoubtedly THE coach to choose!!" https://thechangeschool.com

"It has been an absolute gift to have such a kind, genuine and authentic individual like James be a mentor and coach in my life. For the past 3 years James has listened intently and guided me to understand my true north. To continue with travelling references, James’ coaching reminds me of my favourite and must have travelling item, that is my noise cancelling headphones. James’ coaching is like noise cancelling headphones, not because you detach or escape from the noise around you, but because he assists you in focusing on the sounds you should be listening to. As stubborn as I am, his raw honesty always manages to be heard loud and clear, allowing me to make ask myself the tough questions, and head the right direction, for me. I can’t recommend James enough."
