Professional Coaching Clause Samples
Professional Coaching. Coaching is intended as a support to help teachers improve their instructional practice, and it is not to be used for evaluative purposes. Coaches will not share information from coaching activities with evaluators. If an evaluator wants a teacher to work with a coach to improve, then the evaluator needs to have that conversation with the teacher, not the coach.
Professional Coaching. The School Committee shall make up to $5,000 accessible to the Superintendent for professional coaching for each School Year for the duration of this agreement.
Professional Coaching. The focus of coaching is the development and implementation of strategies to reach client-identified goals of enhanced performance and personal satisfaction. Coaching may address specific personal issues or projects, life balance, job performance and satisfaction, or general conditions in the client’s life, business, or profession. Coaching utilizes personal strategic planning, values clarification, brainstorming, solution- focused interviewing, motivational interviewing, and other counseling techniques. Activities involved in coaching can vary. Coaching often begins with an individual face-to-face session during which the client and coach discuss and agree on goals and activities for the coaching relationship. Follow-up meetings can occur in person or via telephone, email, or other technologies. Progress toward goals will be evaluated regularly and changes can be made to best meet the client’s needs. In addition to providing psychological coaching, I also provide psychotherapy. Although I am held to the same ethical standards as a licensed psychologist, there are a few distinctions. The primary foci of psychotherapy are identification, diagnosis, and treatment of mental and nervous disorders. The goals of psychotherapy include alleviating symptoms, understanding the underlying dynamics that create symptoms, changing dysfunctional behaviors that are the result of these disorders, and developing new strategies for successfully coping with the psychological challenges that we all face. Unlike therapy, coaching does not involve diagnosis or treatment planning and cannot be reimbursed by or submitted to health insurance. It is my opinion that coaching and psychotherapy are distinct relationships so I will enter into only one and will offer referrals if needed for the other.
