Are you a school leader looking to make your school great? Are you a staff developer looking to inspire more commitment and creativity? Are you an instructional coach looking to improve your skills? Are you a mentor looking to have more of an impact? Are you a lead teacher looking to make your colleagues more receptive to new ideas and new possibilities? If you are seeking to make a positive difference in schools, the Center for School Transformation can assist you to get where you want to go.

We do this by equipping people to have new conversations in schools with Story Listening, Expressing Empathy, Appreciative Inquiry, and Design Thinking. The process moves people beyond old ways of thinking, doing, and being. It inspires and invigorates the passion for making schools better, one conversation at a time. It unleashes openness to change and fosters goodwill by inviting educators and other stakeholders into the innovation process as valued collaborators, who need not fear the consequences of sharing their experiences, expressing their feelings and needs, exploring strengths, imagining new possibilities, and experimenting with how best to meet the educational needs of students.

Through professional training and development in the Evocative Coaching process, leadership coaching, and whole-system transformation initiatives, the Center for School Transformation lives up to its name.

We invite you to bring us in as a partner on the journey. Our signature training programs in Evocative Coaching introduce educators to our person-centered, no-fault, strengths-based approach to performance improvement. Graduates can become either "Certified Teacher Development Coaches" or "Certified School Leader Coaches." Our other program offerings apply this model with leaders, buildings, and systems.
