Making the Decision to Invest in Multiple Coaches: Samantha Olson-Wyman & Stephanie Cifuentes

This #coachbetter episode is about how school leaders can make the decision to invest in hiring multiple instructional coaches. This is a highlight from one of our favorite episodes from a previous season featuring Samantha Olson Wyman and Stephanie Cifuentes. Sam and Stephanie share the ways they used data to determine the impact that coaches were making - and they found that everyone in the community was benefiting from instructional coaching.

As coaches and leaders we really have to be clear about the outcome of the work - and we must be able to articulate that to those who are making financial determinations about staffing. It can be hard to spend time and energy on collecting data about your practice and your impact - the actual work of collecting and analyzing the data is keeping you AWAY from doing the work. But actually communicating those outcomes will not only support you better prioritizing your own work, but it may make the case for adding new members to your team.
