In this episode, Dr. Jacy Ippolito and I discuss a wide range of coaching topics! Here are the key points:
Isolation of Coaches and Leaders: Many coaches and leaders feel isolated due to the lack of clear roles and a sense of needing to be the "hero." This isolation can hinder effectiveness.

The Coaching Continuum: The concept of "levels of coaching intensity" is introduced. These levels range from building relationships (Level 1) to analyzing practice (Level 2) to transforming practice (Level 3). 

Alignment is Key: Successful coaching is not just about individual efforts but about a whole-system approach. Alignment between coaches, leaders, and teachers' goals is crucial for optimal outcomes.

Curiosity vs. Fear: Analyzing practice requires a shift from fearing judgment to embracing curiosity about student learning outcomes. This curiosity fuels the desire to transform teaching practices.

Resistance as a Systems Issue: Resistance to change is often rooted in systemic issues, not individual shortcomings. Building a culture of coaching and addressing the underlying causes of resistance are more effective than "fixing" teachers.

In this episode Becca and Melissa (Mia) Pumo, coach of school leadership and instructional coaches, discuss the 2nd level of resistance: they resist change because they don't trust you. Remember- just because you consider yourself trustworthy, doesn't mean they trust you. Without trust, no amount of clarifying expectations and holding teachers accountable will help. A lack of trust means you will get pushback the whole way through the change. A trusting relationship makes change easier, quicker and more effective. Listen in to find out the different components of trust and how to intentionally assess and build it with your leadership team and teachers.
