Two month celebration, with two strokes of brilliance

First stroke of brilliance - contact the CTI Education Niche
​
Second stroke of brilliance - re-engineer the C4E website

At the end of July 2016, I contacted The Co-Active Coaches Education Niche seeking contact with coaches "who coach educators, or who want to coach educators".

The responses fell into three categories.

• Coaches who are simply interested
• Coaches who DO coach educators
• Coaches who WANT TO coach educators

Notes: 

• Most of the coaches are CTI trained, Co-Active Coaches. Some are not.
• Some of the coaches quickly shared their backgrounds, which could form great "journey" stories.
• Some of the coaches may have EMPTY schedules and want more clients
• Some of the coaches may have FULL schedules and not want more clients
• Some of the coaches have not actually coached educators yet

​Hi Martin, I look forward to connecting with you.
Just an FYI, I also coach administrators and teams of coaches who work in education in Wisconsin It's a beautiful journey I am excited you are writing about it!  

​I have done a few workshops with schools since becoming a coach, but various obstacles discouraged me from going down that path. I had great success using the co-active principles with my students during my coach training, but that was 10 years ago and I never documented it.  

If high school educators could work with their students earlier, perhaps more would venture off to college and finish their degree. I find that those who are undecided, are uneasy, distracted, lack motivation at times, and less likely to pursue their educational goals

Another e-book?

I feel like creating an e-book celebrating the fact that there ARE Co-Active Coaches who DO coach in educational organisations.

Purpose

1. Inspiration and encouragement for coaches who WANT to coach in education
2. Acknowledgement of coaches who coach in education
3. Resource for educators choosing Co-Active coaching for Education
