DESCRIPTION

Maybe you read The Art of Coaching few years ago; maybe you’ve even attended an in‐person or virtual workshop. You’ve got the basics down, and you’re ready to take your coaching to the next level. If so, we’ve got you. In The Art of Coaching Masterclass you will explore and practice using the resources, tools, and exercises exclusively found in The Art of Coaching Workbook—and that are designed to extend a coach’s skills beyond what’s in The Art of Coaching.

Participants will engage in exercises in the workbook as pre-work; when we come together, we will share wisdom, experiences, and insights; and practice coaching skills in a supportive community where we challenge one another to learn and grow. You will leave this workshop with increased confidence to making every conversation count—and toward creating a more just and equitable world.


OUTCOMES

Participants will: 

  • Build a learning community through discussions, activities, and practice with The Art of Coaching Workbook
  • Deepen their definition of Transformational Coaching through intentional practice and coaching one another 
  • Hone their skills as coaches for equity 
  • Learn how to make the most of The Art of Coaching Workbook with our schools/organizations by modeling the practices we hope to foster in our communities
  • Have fun and experience joy in a supportive, brave, nurturing community
