Bright Morning

Whether your school team is just beginning to think about equity or has been doing this work for years, building successful schools requires effectively coaching for equity.

In this virtual masterclass, participants will learn how to create a more just, equitable school system using the tools of transformational coaching from Elena Aguilar's newest book, Coaching for Equity (August 2020).  

In this book, Elena offers an expanded framework for how to have coaching conversations that result in behavior change and includes a comprehensive set of new tools. This workshop provides participants with structures within which to practice these conversations and more deeply understand how to use these new tools.

You'll learn about and practice six kinds of coaching conversations that center equity, and you'll see masterful demonstrations of these conversations.

You'll grapple with the relationship between your own identity and the systems of oppression that permeate our schools, develop a vision for what equity would look like in your work, hone the skills to facilitate compassionate coaching conversations about identity, and strengthen your resolve to disrupt inequities in your communities.

This workshop is a satisfying balance between building skill and knowledge - and attending to our need to build internal reserves and resilience when leading for equity.
