Depending on where you’d like to make a bigger impact in your school, a structured program to help you level up your leadership is likely just what you need right now.

- designed a vision statement for how you will bring coaching into your current role (if not a coach), or
- successfully communicated your role to your colleagues (could be a coaching menu)
In this phase, you’ll put into practice everything you’re learning in the coach. You’ll bring a consistent structure and framework to your coaching conversations, you’ll learn how to ask just the right questions at just the right time, you’ll recognize how to transition between coaching stances, and you’ll document coaching conversations and start measuring your impact as a coach.
At the end of this phase, you’ll reach Milestone 2 where you have:
- conducted at least one coaching conversation or cycle, or
- completed a coaching cycle with a teacher you’ve never worked with before, or
- collected feedback on your coaching cycle
In this phase you’ll start building or expanding your coaching culture, but leveling up your work with teams, reaching out to potentially reluctant colleagues and start scaling the success of your individual coaching conversations across your building or school. You’ll start to see yourself as a leader, as a coach.
At the end of this phase, you’ll reach: Milestone 3, by:
- facilitating a team coaching conversation
- leveraging your coaching work with one individual to more
