the Keys to Getting Assignments in the Education System

16/2/2015

I would like to share with you the keys to getting coaching assignments in the education system.
They are:

Courage
Passion
Clarity

I presume that the person I am speaking with is a GREAT leader, with HIGH ambitions for themselves and their school.

I ask "What are you most proud of in your school?" and listen to hear how much the person I am speaking with is driven by fear/pain, or love/courage.


Fear / Pain: I invite them to choose one thing to change (one at the time).
"What's one thing that you would most like to change?"
"What's one thing that is most likely to change first?"
"What might be the most appropriate thing to tackle first?"
etc
then I might ask
"What part could we collaborate on?"'

Love / Courage: I move the conversation towards their biggest dreams, then ask what one step we could take together.

"If you could take one step towards your dream, what might that be?"
"If you could be granted any wish, to get you closer to that goal, what would you ask for?"
"If you could remove one obstacle from your path, which one would you choose?"
etc
then I can ask
"What part could we collaborate on?"'
