Episode Details

In this #coachbetter video, Kristen Moreland shares three ways that school leaders can support their instructional coaches. Often, especially in international schools, we see schools hire instructional coaches and then assume the coaches themselves can build a coaching culture.

The reality is that it takes more than just hiring coaches to build a coaching culture. Even when instructional coaches know exactly what's needed to take the school to the next step, they almost always need the support of their school leader to actually implement the work. Instructional coaching is informal leadership, so having the tangible support of the positional leader is essential for taking action. If you're an instructional coach watching this video, this would be a great conversation starter with your leadership team!
