James Alexander Seechurn is an author and advisor focused on how pay, incentives, and organizational systems shape behavior at work. He works with companies on sales compensation, job architecture, and reward design, helping them move away from overly complex, incentive-dependent models toward approaches that build trust, promote fairness, and support long-term performance.

He is the author of Close the Gap, Nothing Left to Take Away, and What Pay Costs, each grounded in the fundamentals of human psychology. James challenges conventional assumptions around human motivation, organizational design, and pay-for-performance thinking, and draws on real-world examples to explore how organizations should motivate people—and where they often go wrong.

James is the host of the Disengaged podcast, where he invites writers, researchers, and practitioners to share ideas on how we can create a happier, more productive working world.

James lives in San Francisco and writes at the intersection of economics, organizational design, and human psychology.
