Business owners seek Joe out to bring a fresh, experienced perspective to the challenges and opportunities they face. Unleashed creative thinking is the heartbeat of his service. His specialty is coaching individuals - specifically men – to identify purpose in their business and personal lives. Once that purpose is realized, he motivates them to put it into action.
 

Professionally he is called a "consultant," but the rigid confines of that word sets a limited precedent for what he can do for you. Therefore, he is a "Dash" enhancer. A “Dash” enhancer is someone who enhances the time you have on this earth, the time between your birth date and your death date. The dash!
 

Joe also facilitates roundtable coaching sessions where a group of business people buy a seat at the table and all work together to grow and go! New groups are forming now.

The 5.5 Questions Everyone Must Answer

​

What is the value of one powerful QUESTION?

What about one life changing ANSWER?
 

The Five and a Half Questions Everyone Must Answer workshop will empower individuals with a keen understanding of who they are at their core. Powerful questions will challenge and inspire attendees, leading to thought-provoking insights that will help them see their purpose - at work and in life. This fosters higher degrees of motivation, respect and cooperation throughout a life, a business or organization. Each attendee will walk away with a “Snapshot of You”, which is a summation of who they are at that moment in time and provides them with an understanding on how to make any necessary changes in order to have Purposeful Identity.

​

Average people produce average results because in many cases they do not know "who they are" and therefore give average effort.  The Five and a Half Questions Everyone Must Answer Workshop could exponentially change that formula, supercharging your potential through the gift of knowing Who You Are...REALLY!

That’s My Dad!

 

By Joe Pellegrino & Joe Battaglia

​

To succeed at the highest level of any profession requires not just skill, but also confidence and mental toughness. Many men and women have natural skills, but many would also be the first to say that without the affirming love and support from their fathers or a father figure, they would not have made it to the top of their fields.
 

In That’s My Dad! authors Joe Pellegrino and Joe Battaglia look at father models, both positive and negative, that helped to shape the lives of successful men and women in the competitive worlds of media, arts and entertainment, and professional sports.

​

Whether these role models were hurt or helped by the choices of their fathers, they have chosen to learn from their past and portray exemplary qualities like courage, honor, joy, authenticity, and integrity to make them the role models they are today. This book demonstrates the power of true fatherhood and the difference it makes in the lives of children. All of us want to, or yearn that we could, stand up and shout, “That’s my dad!”

Fathers Say

​

by Joe Pellegrino & Joe Battaglia

​

What fathers say can determine a child's way.

Men who have abdicated their roles as fathers are the single greatest problem in society today. But fathers who speak words of encouragement and love to their children, mixed in with some common sense, sow into their hearts and minds the necessary ingredients for reaping healthy identities and self-images that propel toward success in life.

Join Joe Pellegrino and Joe Battaglia as they share moving stories and life lessons from men and women who testify to the power of a father s influence.​
 

Fathers Say beautifully demonstrates the power of a father's words, and the difference they make not only in families, but in society, as well.

The Men’s Struggle Cycle

 

by Juan Garcia & Joe Pellegrino

​

You’re probably wondering what this book is all about. Well it’s definitely not your average book for men, that’s for sure. Isn’t it interesting that every physiological change women go through, have the word “men” in it? You know, menstruation, menopause, etc. I wanted to draw your attention by giving you a perspective that would not only stick with you but will help give a dual understanding. Here’s the skinny – there is a lot in common between a woman’s menstrual cycle and a man’s struggle cycle. We thought it would be helpful to make an in-depth breakdown of how these two compare as it relates to the cycles.
