In this episode, we’re breaking down why some teachers stay on fire while others burnout, stall out, or check out—and it’s not about how hard they’re working.

Backed by Self-Determination Theory (Ryan & Deci, 2000), we’re unpacking how perceived value and accountability shape motivation—and what happens when one (or both) are missing.

You’ll learn the Value–Accountability Matrix—a practical tool that helps you:

  • Spot the difference between thriving and surviving,
  • Diagnose why effort isn’t turning into progress,
  • And figure out exactly where to boost meaning or tighten expectations.

Reflection of the Week:
 “Which quadrant is each of my teachers operating in—and what do they need from me to move forward?”

Because effort alone doesn’t create progress.
Effort with value and accountability does.

Want even more insight into your coaching? Coaching isn't just about strategy—it’s about belief. Take the Catalyst Mindset Quiz and uncover which belief shift your team (or you) need next.
