Want to be a Transformational Coach? What you need is straightforward: a structured space to practice and receive feedback combined with expert modeling and a few prioritized tools.
Gain two critical resilience boosters: space and community. First, the chance to slow down, reflect on your values, and remember what brought you into your role and this field. Then, the opportunity to learn in a community, share wisdom, and form meaningful connections. You'll leave with renewed energy, inspired to return to your school or organization to implement all you have learned.
Success Criteria/ Learning Objectives
- What makes Transformational Coaching uniquely powerful as a way to build emotional resilience in educators and interrupt inequitable practices
- The three components of a Transformational Coaching conversation and how to use multiple strategies and tools for each component
- Your strengths and areas for growth as a coach and leader
- How you can improve your coaching skills through scaffolded practice with other committed learners
Schedule
Part 1: Asynchronous [4+ hours]
Your experience begins with a self-guided exploration of the foundations of Transformational Coaching. This combination of knowledge-building and reflection will help you clarify your vision for yourself as a Transformational Coach. Elena has curated 21 hours of learning for this stage. While all content is highly recommended, four hours of learning content has been identified as required.
Part 2: Self-Guided Reflection [1 hour]
You'll synthesize your learning from Part 1 and prepare to share some of your reflections, takeaways, and questions
Part 3: Virtual Live on October 30, 2024 [4 hours]
Next, you'll come together with a Bright Morning facilitator and a community of coaches to process
your learning, observe masterful coaching, engage in coaching role plays, and receive feedback to sharpen your practice.
