During my 13-year tenure as Co-Founder and CEO of VSCO, Joe Priola's executive coaching has been invaluable to me. I have sought his guidance on numerous occasions and he has always been an active listener, seeking to understand the most crucial aspects of both me and my business. Joe has helped me think through how to bring these aspects to fruition. One of the things I appreciate most about working with him is his dedication to go beyond the surface level and get to the heart of any issue I am working through. I highly recommend Joe to anyone looking to develop their leadership skills.

I can't recommend the Priola Group enough. Allison has been our Enneagram Coach for our Leadership Program for many years and we ask her to come back every single time. She is highly educated in the Enneagram and Business coaching world and makes everything easy to learn. Allison is able to take somebody who knows nothing about Enneagram and make them an expert by bringing value and relatability to every single presentation. Joe has also been a guest speaker to our Leadership Program and is a great person to have come talk to your group. He’s well prepared on the topics you want to work on and is extremely personable. The businesses they invest in and create are ones that have real impacts in our community and shape it to be a place where people are excited to work and live. They are an extremely generous group that wants to help others, and are truly passionate about what they do. We will always call on The Priola Group for our professional needs.

In the 20 years that I've known Joe and Allison, they've been deeply engaged in the work of developing and coaching emerging leaders - including myself. They've consistently added tools to their toolbox that not only address leadership skills, but the holistic health of the leader and the legacy they build. My life and organization bear the marks of their sacred and faithful work.

Founder & CEO, Space Between Design Studio
I was in a season of the unknown and needed to take some risks in launching my new business venture. Coaching helped me create the overarching goals, define the real reason behind my new business venture, and helped me stay on track. When I had times of doubt and confusion I was able to come back to the target I established in coaching, which gave me confidence and an overall peace in moving forward. Through building a relationship of trust and safety with Allison, she helped me discover what was going on in my heart, mind and soul. Scheduling our times was so flexible and something I could do all the way from New Zealand. Every time I left our sessions I came away with greater clarity, specific action steps and accountability. Allison’s coaching pushed me to pursue a new business dream and opportunity to the point of seeing it out. I was able to come up with a business plan, create a vision and an investment package. Anyone can benefit from this!

Joe cares deeply about others and considers the whole person when working with them. This approach helps to dive deep into heart & soul matters and unlock potential that is not available without doing the deep work. I highly recommend Joe to those willing to do the hard work and unlock their maximum potential. My life and leadership has been transformed through the work we put in together.
