Training and Workshops

One, two and three day staff development in Peer Coaching and mentoring.  Peer Coaching is a custom-designed course for self-selected pairs in the work setting, who want to enhance perfomance on the job.  Employees, middle-managers, and supervisors  learn how to:

• develop leadership communication and coaching skills
• effectively present performance evaluations to create ownership of the results
• work collaboratively with a partner or team to enhance work performance
• join in a shared partnership to become reflective practitioners
  
  

Some comments from Workshop participants

“This class provided a risk-free environment to work collaboratively with a trusted colleague. The trust building was essential to my professional growth. My partner was there-not to evaluate me-but to work collaboratively with me to enhance my teaching skills.”

“This peer coaching experience has enhanced my professional practices as well as my ability to be a reflective practitioner... these applications result in immediate changes, versus other professional development where you have to later apply the skills... In this business, we receive very little feedback whether it be praise or suggestions. We have heard about the knowing-doing gap. Peer coaching bridges that gap.”

“Coaching would be a great tool for principals, administrators, and supervisors to use with one another.”

“The coaching skills that I have been developing will be useful in my daily work with staff, and I appreciate the opportunity to have learned techniques from a highly skilled and talented instructor.”

“You don't have to be a professional coach to offer the gift of coaching. The Co-Life Coaching Workshop effectively and quickly teaches you how to listen and interact with your friends and family. I especially liked the exercises to help us recognize our own opinions and advice versus helping them to uncover their own solutions and answers. I highly recommend the workshop to anyone who wants to make a difference in the lives of others.”
