Having started companies across manufacturing, healthcare, and SaaS, I had so many irons in the fire that I struggled to scale effectively. The 12-month coaching program zeroed in on creating a structured, diversified growth plan. I was able to streamline my daily operations, clarify my investment criteria, and strengthen my executive presence. Today, I’m confidently pursuing bigger opportunities and deals, and, despite massive competition, each of my businesses is thriving under renewed focus.

I was simultaneously managing multiple e-commerce businesses and a growing real estate portfolio. Everything felt chaotic. My business coaching program helped me develop a unifying strategy and empowered me to assemble the right leadership teams for each venture. My revenue streams are now more stable than ever, and I finally have the bandwidth to explore new opportunities without losing focus. Thank you, Isabella!

Even with industry expertise, I was missing a leadership edge that resonated with investors and clients. The coaching sessions honed my executive presence, clarified my vision, and helped me form, build, and sustain a team for high performance. My latest development project just sold out—months ahead of schedule. We won against the odds and I know we couldn't have done this without Isabella's coaching.

I launched my nonprofit to solve a tech-access gap, but sustainability was a struggle. Working with Isabella's coaching transformed my mindset from hesitant to assertive, guiding me to establish a business model that aligns both impact and financial stability. We’ve expanded our outreach and attracted major donors.”

Curating high-end events was my passion, but I found myself bogged down with operations. This coaching helped me streamline team responsibilities, build stronger relationships with clients, and turn every event into a showcase of my brand. I’m confident about the next move: scaling and going international.

Buying a coffee franchise felt like a gamble. Through coaching, I was able to work through so many limiting beliefs that were slowing me down. I learned how to optimize daily operations, attract a loyal customer base, and step up as a decisive leader. The result? My location’s sales have soared, and I’m already considering a second franchise.

I was a seasoned senior consultant with great ideas but no clear strategy to launch a SaaS business. Through consistent and the best coaching in my entire career, I learned to craft a compelling value proposition, refine my leadership voice, and impress early-stage investors. Six months in, I landed seed funding and assembled a stellar development team that is doing phenomenal work.

My vision for a holistic wellness resort was always just out of focus. Working with this coaching program crystallized my business plan, streamlined our financing efforts, and strengthened my confidence as a leader. Today, we’re fully funded and on schedule to welcome our first guests.

Leaping into the fitness franchise world was exciting but overwhelming. This 12-month business/executive coaching program helped me develop a focused marketing plan, elevate my team’s performance, and maintain a better work-life balance. We’re now outperforming our revenue projections, and my staff is thriving!

When I launched my robotics sector venture, I had passion but lacked a clear strategic path. This coaching provided a roadmap to prioritize key opportunities, refine my investor pitch, and build confidence in my leadership style. With Isabella supporting me, within months, I secured funding and began forging partnerships that once felt out of reach.

I serve on several franchise boards and needed a cohesive approach to leadership. The 12-month coaching provided a deep dive into synthesizing complex analytics, clarifying long-term visions, and strengthening my communication at board level. Franchisees are thriving under a clearer, more unified strategy.

I’d been pigeonholed as the ‘analytics guy’ for years. With structured coaching, I learned to build an executive brand that highlights my broader business acumen. Within six months, I landed an SVP position overseeing not just data, but overall strategic initiatives.

Transitioning from a COO role into board positions felt like an entirely new playing field. Isabella's coaching focused me on optimizing my environment and mindset, helping me find opportunities in what once felt like barriers. I’m now contributing at a higher level, guiding strategic decisions with clarity and purpose.

I thrived on creativity but lacked decisiveness in high-stakes executive meetings. This coaching program taught me how to align my creative vision with concrete business goals and boosted my confidence in negotiations. Our latest campaign broke sales records—and earned industry accolades.

Balancing high-end guest expectations with innovative leadership was tough. Through my coaching program, I learned strategies to make bold moves to elevate the guest experience, empower my team, and reduce unnecessary stress. Now, our satisfaction scores are skyrocketing, and my department is a model for the entire chain.

Spending years in engineering, I wanted to broaden my leadership to global teams. The 12-month coaching process helped me articulate my vision more compellingly, streamline and magnify my management approach, and eventually move into a VP of Global Operations role.

Having led and served on multiple boards, I needed new perspectives and strategies for a career pivot. Over the course of a year, this coaching program clarified my personal brand and motivated me to explore fresh sectors. Now, I’m on two additional boards, each in cutting-edge industries that truly excite me.

As CFO, I knew the numbers but struggled to influence broader strategy. Isabella's coaching gave much more than career direction; it reshaped how I present ideas to the executive team. We’re making decisions more swiftly, and our profitability metrics reflect that transformation.

I was eyeing a promotion to Senior VP but kept second-guessing my readiness. The coaching program helped me see and leverage all my strengths, communicate and demonstrate them effectively, and refine my leadership voice. I’m now leading the top-priority projects I wanted and finally feel like I’m reaching my true potential.

The Coaching I received has led me to take the decisions and implement the changes I know will benefit the entire company.  Thank you for being my sparring partner, my Coach, my Trainer.  This entire experience has renewed my outlook for my career and my team.

It all began during your customized Trust and Influence training workshop.  We are building and restoring Trust internally and externally for the first time in the firm.  I am confident this will contribute in a fundamental way to growing our company as we want it to be: successful and global.  A deepfelt thank you from us all.

The Persuasion and Influencing  Workshop is what I should have attended when I first began my career! I am thankful that I now have so much more insights, skills and easy to use tools to work with my project teams.  I finally know how to really communicate with my stakeholders (inside and outside my company), plan, and manage my time effectively and efficiently. After 1 month, my projects are increasing, but my work pressure is now within limits!

I was skeptical before the PerfectPROJECT® Essentials Training Workshop. I now realize that Project Management skills are crucial to the success of myself and my team (and my company!).  My mind was completely changed over the course of 2 days.  Thank you for helping me to learn how I can be successful!  I am sending my entire team to gain these skills.  They are life-giving. Like “air and water” for business.  A profound thank you. Senior Brand Manager, Healthcare Industry Personally, I attended the PerfectPROJECT® Workshop to increase my productivity in my projects, because the majority of our projects are completed late and go over budget.  This Workshop was a definite surprise!  This is a complex subject.  However, skills were discussed in depth and the tools provided are extremely effective and easy to use.  For me, this Workshop has covered everything to achieve increased productivity. I want to recommend this Workshop to anyone who is looking for skills or may not be aware that everyone needs Project Management skills in their role.

It has been a refreshingly hands-on instructive experience. Before our PerfectPROJECT® Essentials Workshop, I saw myself as having a high number of new projects to manage every month, but lacking any effective skills or tools or methods to help me or my colleagues.  Now, after the Workshop, I have a new and positive outlook.  Plus, I have clear methods and tools I am already applying.  The streamlining of what is critical to do to start a project and more structured working and analyzing risks have been particularly important aspects for me. The most important thing that is key for me has been how to manage stakeholders and how to ensure that stakeholders are all on board with regard to agreements made. I use my workbook and e-tools on a daily basis.  I look back to how I used to “manage” projects, and the changes are incredible!  I now look forward confidently to a next project! THIS Workshop in Project Management is definitely worth it.

As a Team Leader, my Teams and I have trouble executing our strategic planning correctly. This Strategy-Operations Alignment Training Workshop & Coaching helped me identify where the problems are and gave me the tools to make our planning better and more effective. Thank you for creating such an indispensable Workshop for us!

During our corporate merger, our PerfectPROJECT® Workshop has been a priceless experience throughout and so were the practical tools, skill-sets, and methods we took away which I am already using.  We were able to design and gain approval for our risk management plan and communication plan within the week after the Workshop.  In the past, the same activity would have taken at least 3 months.

Thank you for sharing such valuable tools and methods in the PerfectPROJECT® Workshop.  Those aimed at impacting stakeholder management resonated particularly with me since we work internationally and cross-functionally.   I have already had meetings with 8 of my key stakeholders so I can be more effective at better understand their needs and expectations.  I also now have the confidence that my projects can be successful, for all parties involved.

Thank you for designing and delivering our customized PerfectPROJECT® Workshop which has enabled me to adjust my entire attitude towards Planning.  I have made a strong commitment to streamline my own work by using the clear and simple methods and tools you have provided at each step.  Also, I return to rejoin the rest of my team, re-energised, and with new perspectives.  I cannot wait to share what I have learned with my team!  They will be at the next edition of your Workshop.

My team and I all agree that the tailored Influencing and Engagement Workshop has forever changed how we view and apply methods and tools.  We are now transforming our projects to be on the “success path”.

My days of letting my stakeholders dictate my actions are over.  In our series of customized Workshops and Coaching sessions, I have not only built my Project Management skills, but also Negotiation and Persuasion and Influencing skills.  Thank you for helping to gain such important insights and to learn methods I can apply to all my projects and endeavors.

We have multiple global teams which all have both local and international stakeholders.  Until the Coaching and Training on Persuasion and Influencing skills, I didn’t believe there could be any effective approaches to deal with budgeting of our projects.  Thank you completely changing my perspective and for empowering us all to manage strategic-operations alignment!

A one-stop shop for Project Management methods, tools that are for immediate application for everyone.  This PerfectPROJECT® Essentials should be a required Training Workshop for everyone in my company.  This is the first hands-on Workshop experience that is actually practical and applies to my work.

Together with other colleagues I participated in the PerfectPROJECT® training Workshop in my company.  Through the training and working during the 2 days, I have been able to improve a lot. I had prior training in project management before this Workshop, but, up to now, I had never learned what Project Management success really looks like.  I have finally learned how to plan better, prioritize, budget, and communicate with my stakeholders. I am already a better Project Manager!  You can apply these skills to every area of ​​your life and I would recommend it to everyone who wants to manage any kind of project.

Planning has become my mantra.  I have completely corrected my understanding of what Project Management should be.   At one week after the PerfectPROJECT® Essentials Training Workshop and applying just 2 of the approaches, the effects are tangible, measurable, and the impacts on our teams’ morale have been like a breath of fresh air for the productivity and morale of our entire Business Unit.  A huge thank you!  Projects are getting so much better already, Dr. Fugaccia!

This is the first double training Workshop on Decision-Making and Persuasive Communication in the global market that has responded to our needs.  Thank you, Dr. Fugaccia, for offering a fully-customised programme exceeding our expectations.  We are already feeling the positive effects of a new way of viewing and executing our projects in our division

I am now free from the old concepts of Decision-Making.  Thanks to your Decision-Making Essentials® Workshop and Coaching I now know what is really important to manage a project successfully.  The skills and tools we learned to apply to our own projects are invaluable. This formula is enabling the success of my team.  Thank you for sharing this with us!

We wanted to let you know that two days after our PerfectPROJECT® Workshop, my team and I are continuing our work aimed at producing better budget, resource, and time estimates for our next projects.  We are already obtaining results and we will never go back to NOT using Project Management methods, skill-sets, and tools you have given us!  Our “Dark Ages” are over for good!  Thank you for 2 days that will impact the rest of my life so positively!

The PerfectPROJECT® Essentials Workshop and Coaching sessions turned on several light bulbs in my head and helped me to identify why our team was having so many problems managing our multiple stakeholders.  I now know why and what both my team and I will do!  Enlightening and practical.  I recommend this to anyone, in any role who manages even a single project.

It all began during your customized Trust and Influence training workshop.  We are building and restoring Trust internally and externally for the first time in the firm.  I am confident this will contribute in a fundamental way to growing our company as we want it to be: successful and global.  A deepfelt thank you from us all.    

To have the help and support of an independent Coach and Trainer who has ‘been there and done that’ is critical and in that respect, Isabella Fugaccia was the perfect partner for me and my team

Extraordinary value, in a complete and fully-customized package.  I was able to begin work on my own real-world issues, using practical approaches and simple tools provided.  This has enabled me to hit the ground running on my projects.  We are looking forward to planning our next Workshops, at a European scale.

“I specifically sought out someone with a true multicultural business background (US/European), who could make me listen to different opinions from my (US) team and company and think differently.  I learned to use different perspectives to work with my strengths and against my biases.  This has made all the difference to me in a globally competitive world.”
