A certified InsideTrack trainer will describe how a proactive coaching model can be used to motivate and empower students and staff. The session will focus on defining goals and identifying strategies to achieve them, emphasizing assessing with open-ended questions and building motivation.

My goal is for audience members to learn the value of coaching as a technique in communicating with and supporting others. Furthermore, the audience members should gain coaching tools they can immediately implement at their institutions.

I will use the InsideTrack coaching methodology and pure coaching techniques to show how faculty, staff, and administrators can empower and motivate others to reach their own goals or that of the institution. I will show how asking open-ended questions to define goals and the steps to achieving them allows for choices to be made with little to no resistance. I will focus on empowering and motivating to fit with the theme of the conference.
