This exciting book is designed to help coaches, or individuals in a coaching and/or capacity-building role, support educators in becoming culturally responsive leaders. Coaching Education Leaders describes a unique Facilitative Competency-Based Coaching approach formulated by the nationally recognized nonprofit organization The Leadership Academy. Using six Equity Leadership Dispositions as its foundation, this model helps educators identify and directly address inequities in their schools to ensure the academic, social, and emotional success of all students. The strategies in this book help coaches plan the full arc of the coaching experience, from identifying goals and assessing progress, to designing each session to meet the individual learning needs of their coachees. To bring these coaching ideas to life, this book shares real stories from the field, illustrating the coach-leader relationship and takeaway tools for readers to immediately apply in their own work. The authors share practical coaching techniques to create a safe learning space and engage coachees in the deeper levels of dialogue required to identify and address systems-level adaptive challenges. This self-paced guide to coaching educators is a key resource for anyone interested in developing others’ leadership skills for the sake of creating meaningful and sustainable change in their schools, school systems, and in the leaders who lead both.
