With a very heavy heart, ILCT is mourning the loss of Dr. Jim Vuocolo - our Director of Training, a Senior faculty member for the past 20 years, and a wonderful mentor, friend, and coach.

Jim was a pioneer in the coaching profession - a charter member of the International Coach Federation; one of its first Master Certified Coaches; a charter member and Certified Executive Coach with the World Association of Business Coaches; a Certified Life Coach & Mid-Life Strategist; a Certified Job Loss Recovery and Career Coach; and a Certified Mentor Coach. He began coaching in 1990, training with Thomas Leonard, and has since trained thousands of coaches at ILCT, as well as CoachU. To all these endeavors, he brought his incredible sense of humor, his passion for coaching and helping others succeed, as well as his faith as a retired pastor through United Church of Christ, ordained in 1979.

While his legacy will continue through the classes he developed, he will be sorely missed. Our love and prayers go out to his wonderful family and to all who were blessed to know and grow with him.

RIP Jim.
