Sherpa Group provides executive and business coaching for leaders, founders, and teams, alongside family coaching, teen mentoring, student mental health services, and integrative health. Based in Wake Forest and Raleigh, North Carolina, we also offer virtual coaching.
Founder Ryan Coley brings together experience as a multi-unit franchise owner, an executive coach with Novus Global, and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. His business coaching focuses on the human side of leadership: communication, relationships, team dynamics, and the patterns that shape how people lead.
Our name reflects the role of a guide: someone who helps you find a path through unfamiliar terrain and stays alongside you as you move forward. Ryan founded Sherpa Group to support young people and families through major life transitions. That commitment to the person behind the challenge remains central to our work.
Today, that work also includes leaders navigating business growth, succession, and change. Whether the next step concerns a leadership team or a family, our approach values honest conversation, meaningful relationships, and a clear direction.
