Coaching for School Leadership Cohort at Discover '25

The Coaching for School Leadership Cohort is an in-depth opportunity for principals and principal supervisors to hone coaching skills that can be put into practice immediately. The learning will develop attendees through three components:

• Discover '25 Launch: Foundations of Coaching for Instructional Excellence facilitated by Florida Atlantic University coaching expert consultants as a pre-conference to Discover '25 in June,
• Monthly Interactive Virtual Forums: Build on the learning and opportunities to reflect upon and practice five coaching stances,
• Two-Day Summit: Coaching for Sustained Instructional Excellence facilitated by Florida Atlantic University expert coaching consultants in-person.

Participants will…

• develop the ability to use coaching skills and strategies that help school leaders build self-efficacy through reflective practices and the self-identification of instructional leadership competencies.
• engage in reflective coach conversations focused on giving feedback, relationship building, and listening which will guide the leader to examine their actions and thoughts and lead to a new way of being.

Specific learning objectives through learning and practice include:

1. Identify, apply, and refine five essential coaching competencies: Building Relationships; Leveraging Resources; Demonstrating Data Literacy; Practicing Listening, Observing, and Questioning; and Providing Feedback.
2. Define and use coaching stances (Bloom and Owens-Wilson, 2023) including facilitative, collaborative, instructive, consultative, and directive.
3. Clarify coaching outcomes to align with the evolving role of school leaders, leadership standards and competencies.
4. Engage in personal and professional development that builds a culture of collaborative inquiry that leads to collective efficacy.
5. Self-assess individual practice to support instructional leadership development and make commitments to ongoing improvement.
6. Develop and implement a personal and team coaching plan.
