Nine years ago I stepped into my new role as a coach.
You can see from the whiteboard in my office that I was trying to define my role and get clarity on my work from the very beginning.
After coaching three schools, launching three instructional coaching programs, working with 9 Principals and 4 Academic Deans, leading a team of coaches, and coaching hundreds of coaches online, I finally have a clearer picture of how to clarify the coaching role.
It happens in 4 steps:
1. You get clear on your role
2. You help your principal(s) get clear on your role
3. You help teachers get clear on your role
4. You build relationships and help everyone get even more clear on your role
I collected all that I've learned and put it into my new online course specifically for new coaches who are just stepping into this role.
If you're wondering "I'm a New Instructional Coach, Now What?!?" this then course is designed just for you!
