#coachstudies with Coaches Panel (Working with Not So Supportive Admin)
Hello coaches! Welcome back to another episode of Coach.Better! Today we have another episode of our #coachstudies series, where we share a scenario with an archetypal educator and discuss how we would approach a coaching relationship with them. Today's archetype is a "supportive, but not really so supportive school leader." We can all relate to the frustration of having great conversations with our school leaders, but those not translating into action. We brainstormed 8 strategies we can use with our school leaders to turn talk into action! We also discussed four stakeholder groups that coaches can collaborate with to help make things happen!

How to collect and use feedback with Kim Cofino and Clint Hamada
In today's episode Clint and I are chatting about a question we received in our #coachbetter Facebook group: How do you get feedback on your coaching? In true Clint and Kim style, we expanded on this initial question to dig a little deeper into the purpose and value of feedback, and the ways that we can seek out a critical friend (both within and beyond our immediate school community) to reflect on the feedback we receive. As coaches, it's critical that we demonstrate our commitment to professional growth, and our conversation today builds a potential process that all coaches can use to track, reflect on and learn from feedback on their coaching!
