Change is hard! As coaches, we often have to overcome objections and resistance from our teachers. But how can we do it effectively?

In this episode, Becca Silver from The Whole Educator joins me to talk about breaking through resistance with difficult conversations. She offers practical strategies for overcoming resistance and shares real-life examples from her coaching conversations.

During our discussion, Becca explains how resistance is a normal human response and why teachers experience it. You’ll hear about the types of conversations instructional coaches avoid and how to approach these discussions with teachers. We talk about how to build trust, listen intentionally, and address teachers’ unmet needs. Plus, we explore how to address our resistance so we don’t bring it into our conversations with teachers.

Listen now to get all the details and learn new strategies you can try today!
