A Coach’s Notebook
Details
We know that you want to be an organized and present leader.
To do that, you need to prioritize what’s most important. The problem is that so many things are important! It is easy to feel like you’re constantly behind and your to-do list is an endless pile of sticky notes or buried in one of the 37 open browser tabs. This makes you feel frazzled and as though you are constantly falling short. We believe you shouldn’t be buried under paperwork when you want to support teaching and learning. We’ve all felt like we’re drowning from the onslaught of information and project deadlines. A notebook can be a coach’s lifeline to regaining confidence to lead well.
Here’s how we do it:
- Get a notebook and a favorite pen.
- Learn to leverage your notebook as a tool and a system for productivity.
- Lead with joy, presence, and intention.
Matt Renwick depends on his notebook to live and work mindfully in a world that is constantly calling for his attention. He is a systems coach for school leaders, a former principal, and author of Leading Like a C.O.A.C.H.
