WHY YOU WANT TO ATTEND

If you want to see sustained changes in practice, your coaching must go below the surface of addressing behaviors (delivering instruction, analyzing data, etc.). Transformation requires taking a holistic approach and skillfully exploring someone’s beliefs and ways of being. This approach is what defines Transformational Coaching. Transformational Coaches operate from two truths: that every conversation is an equity conversation, and if people are present, so are their emotions. 

If you want to begin your journey or grow your skills as a Transformational Coach, The Art of Coaching workshop is where you should begin. Based on Elena’s best-selling book, The Art of Coaching (2013), this blended learning experience takes you from knowledge building to effective implementation all while accommodating busy schedules.

📖 Move beyond the book: 

We cannot think or read our way to skillful practice. If you want to be a Transformational Coach, what you need is straightforward: structured space to practice and receive feedback combined with expert modeling and a few prioritized tools. That is exactly what you’ll receive in this workshop. 

New and experienced coaches will gain clarity about Transformational Coaching and its potential to impact schools and organizations, all while growing confidence in their coaching abilities. Administrators will leave with new tools for leading the adults on their teams.

⬆️ More than skill building: 

This workshop also provides you with 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 community, share wisdom, and form meaningful connections with coaches across the globe. You’ll leave with renewed energy, inspired to return to your school or organization to implement all that you have learned.

✨ New in 2023: 

Your workshop enrollment now also includes complimentary access to two Transformational Coaching Accelerator (TCA) sessions. These TCA sessions take place during the two months immediately following the workshop date and provide the time to ensure workshop learnings continue to translate into skillful practice.




WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

  • 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
