In this #coachbetter episode, Clint and Kim chat with Michele Mattoon, Executive Director of the National School Reform Faculty. Michele is a master facilitator and coach. As Executive Director of NSRF, she works with school leaders, coaches, and educators around the world to help them have better, more intentional, and more meaningful conversations through the use of the Critical Friends Group Protocols & Communities. This conversation clarifies what a protocol is, why they work so well, how to use them effectively, and how to start bringing them into your school culture. If you’re ready to have more intentional conversations - with individuals, teams, divisions, or a whole school, you don’t want to miss this conversation!  Find the show notes for this episode here.
