Frequently Asked Questions About Coaching

Strategic planning involves setting long-term goals, defining actions to achieve them, and allocating resources effectively. It’s crucial for aligning efforts and ensuring sustainable improvement in education.

We address resistance by fostering open communication, building consensus, and demonstrating the benefits of the strategic plan through evidence and success stories.

During the initial assessment, we conduct thorough analyses, collect data, and engage stakeholders through surveys and focus groups to understand the unique needs and challenges of your institution.

At times, we can honor last-minute requests, but the earlier you book, the better chance you have of securing your date(s). Many schools book our coaching sessions as a follow-up experience to a keynote presentation, on-site training, in tandem with one of our self-paced courses. These are usually booked out 3-6 months in advance.

We understand you have certain scheduling challenges at times so we customize coaching completely around your scheduling needs. Our sessions can be formatted as a full-day training with the entire staff, two half-day sessions with different groups, 45-minute grade-level rotations, or PLC times. We also do before or after-school meetings. Coaching can be virtual or on-site.

After we’ve confirmed a date and time, we’ll send an email the week of the session(s) with all the information and accompanying materials. Depending on the size of the group, if it’s onsite or virtual, and the format of teacher participation, you may need:

  • A projector – to project the video of the SE consultant (if coaching is being provided in a large group setting)
  • Wifi
  • Speaker system (if necessary)
  • Communication to the staff with the zoom link, we will provide the week of the session(s), if virtual
  • Printouts of the digital resources we will send via email two weeks before the session(s)

With written notice, your coaching sessions may be rescheduled for a future date within the same school year, up to 60 days before the designated date. However, the contract must be paid in full by the first original selected date. 

Absolutely. We tailor our approaches to meet the unique challenges and goals of each client, ensuring relevant and actionable outcomes.

We offer robust tracking tools, such as dashboards and progress reports, to monitor the implementation of the strategic plan and measure its effectiveness regularly.

Your Strobel Education consultant will email you two weeks prior to the training and include a PDF handout to be printed out for your participants’ use. If you prefer, an interactive digital version will also be made available. If this is the route taken, please make sure laptops or tablets are made available.

An invoice is created and sent within 72 business hours following the designated coaching date. Payment is due in full within 30 days via check. If a school requests an invoice in advance, we are happy to provide that. 

After securing dates, you’ll receive a contract that includes the date, time, topics, and goals of your coaching sessions. Three weeks before the session(s), you’ll receive a reminder email along with the relevant digital materials.

Approximately three weeks before your scheduled sessions, a Strobel Education consultant will reach out to you to discuss your goals for coaching and make final plans for the timing, format, and length of each session.

 

We adhere to strict data privacy and security protocols to ensure that all information is handled confidentially and securely.
