Transformational Leadership/Coaching Book Study: Leading Change in Education
Check out the newest book study developed by the MISIC team on Arise: The Art of Transformational Coaching by Elena Aguilar. This book is a powerful guide for educators, administrators, and instructional coaches ready to drive meaningful, lasting change. This book study will explore foundational frameworks for fostering self-awareness, emotional resilience, and impactful communication to lead transformation.
Participants will:
- Dive into the five dispositions of transformational coaching while leading—compassion, curiosity, courage, trust in the process, and humility—and learn how to embody them in their work.
- Gain insights into facilitative and directive coaching stances to navigate challenging conversations and inspire shifts in behaviors, beliefs, and ways of being.
- Learn practical strategies to foster equitable and sustainable change while addressing the emotional undercurrents in every conversation.
Expect engaging discussions, reflective practices, and tools you can apply immediately to transform yourself and your team. You will also use the slide decks with all kinds of engagement strategies prepared for this study. Whether you’re an administrator, instructional coach, teacher leader, or part of the leadership cadre, this study will empower you to lead purposefully and confidently.
