Leadership Coaching

I didn't know what to expect from this, but it impacted me by having a safe person to go to at the beginning of this position, navigating lots of different layers. Yes, I would totally recommend it. Also, I think it was really valuable for me to have a fellow woman of color be my coach. She understood my perspective so I didn't have to explain; I could just share from where I was.

I really appreciated having a thought partner with similar experiences whom I do not work with directly. I recommend it.

I have found this experience to be very beneficial in terms of objectively talking through leadership and career pathways. 

I found this experience incredibly helpful. While I have colleagues that I can turn to, being a principal can sometimes be lonely. I have clear goals and things I want to accomplish but the coaching allowed me a sounding board for how to meet those goals and push them even farther. I prioritized this time and that will benefit my school/work moving forward.

I have worked with my leadership coach for 2 years (going on 3). I truly look forward to our monthly phone calls. She provides a space for self-reflection, helping me identify strengths, areas for growth, and uncover blind spots. Through our conversations, I am empowered to untangle challenges, prioritize my goals, and create actionable steps for something I will do before we have our next call, which is empowering and motivating. Having a trusted, objective thought partner with whom to discuss sensitive issues without judgment is both refreshing and reassuring. I absolutely recommend the leadership coaching program to others who may be looking to develop their leadership skills and hold space for dedicated reflection time.
