“I am so thankful for Vincent’s coaching services. Over the past six months we have worked together to consider how I might grow, not only as a pastor, but also as a Christian. The solutions considered have always resulted in practical and beneficial ends to Christ’s church. I am appreciative of Vincent’s professionalism, pastoral experience, organization, and competency – all which come across in each session. If you are looking to grow as a leader, I’d commend you to consider working alongside Vincent and the coaching services he provides.”

"My session and I were working on planning my pastoral sabbatical and I needed some outside help. Vincent’s coaching before, during, and as sabbatical ended was instrumental in a successful sabbatical – I returned rested, recharged, and renewed. My conclusion: if you’re going to have a sabbatical, you need to have a coach. The church and my family are still enjoying the fruits of the sabbatical period, even as we’re fully on ramped taking our next steps in our new season together. I’m truly loving my job these days."

"Vincent and Lorraine were a pleasure to work with for our elders and wives retreat. They really care about keeping the gospel central in how they plan, lead, and follow up. Their knowledge, experience and expertise provided excellent guidance and incite as we planned the retreat. As facilitators, they asked insightful questions that drove the desired engagement of the group. It was nice to have the versatility of having the group together or split between husbands and wives. We’d be happy to work with them again."

"Thank you for your investment in my life. Your wisdom and insights were a blessing, helping me see the areas I stumble and the areas where I walk stronger. The Lord used you to bring a leveled perspective when I walk through discouragement and excessive stress. I also thank you for providing tools to remain steadfast through the daily struggles, that I may be faithfully to Christ and His callings. Thank you. I am grateful for your work and true concern."

“Vinny’s coaching has been extremely helpful. He was able to help me see many of my strengths and weaknesses in my leadership. At the same time, it helped me see how I can improve upon those weaknesses."

"I had the good fortune to work with Vincent Tauriello for about five years as he coached our worship leaders. Vinny worked with us to help us become better musicians, but he also spent time helping us to understand WHAT we were singing...From a musical standpoint, Vincent was kind and gentle but truthful in how we should best use our voices and instruments. We were able to better evaluate our talents and I grew a great deal from his thoughts and comments. I credit that growth to my coach and friend, Vincent."

"Hiring Vincent to help us set up our ministry for expansion was invaluable. As a certified coach he brought a level of professionalism and expertise that was evident from our very first session. He guided our team through times of personal reflection, strategic goal-setting, and practical action steps. His deep understanding of ministry dynamics and compassionate approach helped us navigate challenges with clarity and confidence. I can confidently say that Vincent played a significant role in equipping me to lead more effectively and sustainably."

“Vincent helped me tremendously as a trusted source for practical wisdom in my ministry as a solo pastor. He especially helped me to slow down and think through problems biblically and personally for my church context.”

"Vincent Tauriello served as my pastoral coach from 2019 through 2021. Initially, I sought out a pastoral coach to help me stay fresh in my own personal and spiritual development, as well as to have an outside sounding board for ongoing issues of leadership and ministry. Vincent is an excellent coach who listens, encourages, and challenges through lively conversations. He is supportive and faithful, eager to see his clients flourish as pastors. At the same time, he is willing to raise important issues for reflection. Providentially, Covid hit during the midst of our coaching relationship, and having Vincent to talk through personal and ministry issues in such a challenging time proved helpful and fruitful. Our Session has also brought Vincent to our community for a weekend to lead a Session offsite for us. I would highly recommend doing that to bring the benefit of his skills to the whole Session. I am thankful to God for Vincent and his devotion to coaching pastors and leadership teams to the glory of God!"

Frequently Asked Questions

The word coach first appeared in the 16th century and referred to the horse-drawn carriages created and used in the Hungarian town of Kocs’.  In the 1800’s the term coach was used by Oxford University to describe tutors who “carried” students through an exam.  Then in the mid-1800’s the word was associated with the world of sports to describe a coach “carrying” an athlete forward.  Now coaches carry people forward in every sphere: business, art, music, education, public speaking, and ministry.  The image of a carriage provides an apt picture of the coaching profession.  Whereas counseling generally looks down and back with a person so they may heal and move on, coaching looks out and in to carry a person forward.  It helps bridge the gap between where a person is now and where they want to be in the future.

It is a partnership that will inspire you to reach your personal and professional potential. I only take clients by invitation or referral and once we agree to work together, we first establish a coaching contract that defines our coaching relationship (frequency of meetings, duration of contract, responsibilities of each party, fees, confidentiality, and schedule). Then we identify your desired goals, outcomes, and results and create a safe and supportive environment for achieving them. I have designed simple forms to help you get the most out of each session and to evaluate your progress and our relationship. Lastly, as you achieve results we celebrate them together.
