Coaching & Mentoring
The pandemic brought to the CEO’s attention how vulnerable and lonely leadership could be within the Trust.
They decided they needed confidential, personal and professional coaching for their most valued people – their staff.
“I was worried about the well-being of all staff including head teachers.” - CEO of a large multi-academy Trust
Solution
The Trust had been working with Eteach for some time and were aware that we had an advisory arm. Éamonn and Tony, the Directors, visited the Trust to discuss how coaching and mentoring might help. The Trust agreed to engage EEA to coach their senior central staff. When Covid erupted, they called us in to coach all 20 of their primary school heads. As sponsors, the Trust agreed an outline for the programme.
The programme included:
- One-to-one virtual coaching and mentoring
- Helping colleagues meet their own and the organisations goals
- Acting as a sounding board to help ensure professional needs are met
- Understanding need, developing skills, bolstering confidence
- Building consensus and support
Outcome
Feedback from the participating headteachers was incredibly positive. They all strongly agreed the sessions had been of value, helping them to gain self-awareness, clarify goals and achieve development.
The sessions provided appropriate challenge, a safe space and allowed them time for professional reflection. The Trust had no hesitation in re-engaging EEA as the demand from their heads was so powerful. Post-programme we provided a final report and now have an on-going relationship with the Trust.
“Coaching has helped me to reflect upon and clarify my role and to grow in confidence in performing it. It has also challenged me to look for options I might not otherwise have thought about and to identify actions to work towards goals. The regular time for reflection has helped to prevent the bigger picture being overshadowed by the busy day to day details.”
