Everyday C.O.A.C.H.E.S. - Leading with Excellence
Monday February 24, 2025 1:00pm - 2:30pm CST
This engaging workshop will encourage teamwork, planning and cohesive interactions. Through stronger human relationships, teams can help convey the message of positive interaction and problem-solving. So often, staff members become bogged down with all of the paperwork that constitutes working with families and children. However, in today’s climate we have to make human relationships a priority too. The more we can connect and become aware of our own strengths and abilities – the more we can truly impact lives. Dr. Kimberly Johnson will share her experiences and encourage you to take the time to get to know your families and your co-workers. This session will present common sense ways to increase leadership, creativity and resiliency among our learners. Participants will leave this motivating and invigorating session ready to increase positive behavior, leadership skills, self-efficacy, and communication. For some of our families YOU are their everyday COACHES who lead!
