Confidentiality with Transparency: Separating Growth from Evaluation with Kim Cofino

In this #coachbetter episode, Kim address what she means by "confidentiality with transparency". As coaches, we know that coaching experiences need to be confidential so we can create a safe space for teachers to be vulnerable, take risks and set authentic goals. However, sometimes we worry that because coaching is confidential we can never share anything that happens within a coaching relationship.

So, what happens when:

A coaching partner has success and sees an impact on student learning?

Our administrators are curious about what we're doing in our coaching cycles?

Work that we're doing with one coaching partner might be relevant or supportive to another one of our coaching partners?

When we're seeing trends across a division or subject area that would be helpful for leaders to know?

We want to build interest in the impact of coaching by sharing coaching stories with the school community?

We need to demonstrate the impact that coaching has made with people who manage the budget or the board?

Listen to this episode to find out how to approach these situations.
