#coachbetter Season 7 Reflection: The Small Shift That Changed Everything with Kim Cofino
In this final #coachbetter episode for Season 7, Kim talks about the challenge of feeling like you're constantly in day-to-day mode, without being able to be intentional about planning for what's coming up next. As educators we are busy and now AI is pushing us in a variety of ways to try to do even more, often with less resources. It can feel impossible to keep up. And that often leads us to think that we have to do more, even faster. But that is not the case - it is pausing for reflection. Kim relates this to the power of coaching and how it forces us to slow and take time to process our thinking. Find the show notes for this episode here.

Trend Spotting in Your Coaching Data with Kim and Diana
In #coachbetter episode Kim and Diana talk about ways that you can spot patterns and trends in your coaching data for the year. Kim was recently talking to our current members of the Coach and we talked about how important it is to just start collecting data and building in a practice of reflection - even if you are worried that you won't have "enough" data. The data you collect right now can become your baseline data to refer back to in future years. Even if you're not sure what data to collect, or what to do with the results, waiting until you feel ready just delays your progress. When you start now, you get the opportunity to: collect that baseline data, learn what kinds of questions you want to ask, and better understand how to analyze and unpack the data you find Find the show notes for this episode here.

Why Do Coaches Need a Macro View? with The Coach Mentors
In this #coachbetter episode we're talking about the importance of understanding the macro view of the whole school as an instructional coach. This is a highlight from one of our favorite episodes from a previous season featuring two of our amazing The Coach Mentors: Diana Beabout and Kristen Moreland. In this clip we unpack the subtle (but often unexpected and surprising) shift to looking at your work as a coach from the micro view (what you do on an individual level) to the way that, as soon as you step into a coaching role, you are required to look at the work of coaching within a much larger viewpoint (the division, the school, the district). This is often a big surprise for coaches - and even some experienced coaches can be reluctant to take on this informal leadership aspect of the role. But when you move into a coaching role, it becomes part of your responsibility to work towards the success of developing the program and the culture - not just the micro view of your coaching practice.
