Growth Coaching: An Introduction to Leadership
Presented by Mary Webb
This workshop is a result of Instructional Coaching Group’s partnership with Growth Coaching International, the leading provider of coaching professional development in Australia and New Zealand for more than two decades. The quality of the conversations in an organization can critically influence the organization’s effectiveness. This session explores how a coaching orientation, together with a strong coaching process and key coaching skills, can make a significant and immediate difference in the conversations in which school leaders engage every day. It provides leaders with the tools they need to take a coaching approach to all conversations with their teams.
Participants will receive a copy of the Introducation to Leadership Coaching workbook.
