Episode description

"If teachers have areas in which they can be developed, instructional coaches have the coaching program in our district, and leaders and aspiring leaders have ways to learn - what if we created a way for facilitators to learn? Because whoever is facilitating all of that learning, they need to be poured into as well. They need to be developed, too." - Dr. Jessica Wise

Hello and welcome back to our monthly Coaching Questions episode, where we dive deep into the world of coaching and education. I'm your host, Jim Knight, and I'm thrilled to be joined once again by ICG consultant, Dr. Jessica Wise.

This week, we celebrate a significant milestone in Jessica's journey – her doctoral accomplishment in the field of education. It's a momentous occasion that deserves recognition, and we couldn't be more excited to share in her success.

Jessica's doctoral research encompassed human focus facilitation. In our conversation, she discusses what it means to be more focused on the humans and less focused on the presentation. Listen in as Jessica shares the four ways to prioritize your learners and ensure meaningful professional development experiences where they feel refreshed, rejuvenated, and empowered.
