Any instructional coach who has tried to initiate coaching cycles on their campus knows how complicated and challenging it can be. We struggle to build relationships with teachers and help them understand how coaching cycles can support them, rather than being one more thing added to their plates. It’s also difficult to make time for cycles when coaches are pulled in so many different directions, whether that’s by administrators who don’t understand our role, or because of the current needs of the school.

In this episode of The Coaching Podcast, you get to listen in on a coaching call as I help a coach troubleshoot their coaching cycles. Malia Oshiro is an itinerant coach working with secondary schools in her district. During the show, we talk about building foundational relationships with teachers, ways to get them on board with coaching cycles, and how to make them work when you have too much to do and too little time.

If you’re struggling to get started with coaching cycles on your campus, or if you’re looking for ways to make them more effective, this episode is for you! I know you’ll walk away with something valuable that you can try out tomorrow. Listen now!
