- You can’t afford to not have coaches! There are many ways to incorporate coaching into a culture.
- Leaders with coaching skills are more effective and more impactful.
- Communication, active listening, developing a culture where coaching and feedback are part of the norm.

- The best professional development is the teacher down the hall.
- Position coaching to the staff as a support, not another observation.
