Leveraging Our Learning for More Effective Coaching and Mentoring
Event Information
About this event
In the evolving landscape of education, with retention and support of faculty as an essential priority, mentoring and coaching are vital for long-term success. This 5-session series is for novice and experienced coaches who wish to expand their tools and techniques to best equip teachers in their professional growth. Join us to learn and apply best practices for engaging in meaningful and productive coaching and mentoring. Through small group discussion, individual reflection, scenario analysis, and role play, attendees will learn to better navigate the current reality and develop skills that increase impact and foster resilience and agency. Participants will be able to apply their learning between sessions and use the group as thought partners throughout the school year. A wide range of resources will be shared.
LEARNING GOALS
Participants will:
- Establish a shared language of coaching frameworks and concepts to foster a collaborative working community
- Develop a tool box of practical strategies for engaging in coaching conversations
- Reflect on and leverage new coaching techniques
- Identify and reflect on the ways in which different roles and power dynamics affect our coaching relationships and practices (supervisor, peer to peer, non-supervisory administrator)
- Explore your own coaching identity and stance as well as develop and practice techniques for professional self-care
- Apply strategies to one’s own current coaching challenges and receive feedback from fellow participants
- Build ongoing connections with other educators involved in coaching and mentoring
