Blog and On-Demand Webinar: Using Coaching Skills to Expand your Effectiveness as an Educator

Guest Blogger:  Danielle Bane, EdD

If Dr. Martin Luther King is correct, and “the function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically,” then what is the role of a coach in education?  Skilled coaches are able help others discover how to move forward and realize their goals.  This might occur in the form of unlocking motivation.  Or it could be about reframing new knowledge so it can be maximized in use.  How is this different from teaching?  Or mentoring?  How is coaching helpful for educational leaders?  In this webinar, we will consider these ideas and more about coaching and its effectiveness in the challenging and changing context of education.
