LIVE WORKSHOP
Agreement as the Key to Effective Coaching
In this fast-paced, actionable session, Michael Sonbert will share strategies for both creating agreement in a coaching relationship as well as around best instructional practices. Oftentimes, coaches and teachers aren't on the same page around things like what coaching meetings will entail, what they're both responsible for, and what they're trying to accomplish together. This lack of clarity can lead to frustration and inaction, which harms the relationship and stalls progress. Without agreement, even the most skilled coaches can struggle. This session will allow for coaches to feel more confident naming the things that matter and garnering buy-in around them.
