EDLeader  Peer Coaching

The role of leader can be lonely. Who do you seek out when you need support engaging a complex challenge? Who are your thinking partners? Who understands deeply the challenges of your role? 

EdLeader Peer Coaching groups are cohort-based programs for the professional and personal development of current and future leaders committed to creating a safe space for learning and collegiality. 

These facilitated dialogs use current work experiences as opportunities for learning. Group members share their unique leadership challenges and gain insight and accountability with the support, wisdom, and guidance of leadership peers from across the region. 

A Cohort Program

We create courageous learning space together. An organization will be represented by no more than 2-3 participants in a single group. If your organization wants a peer coaching group with only your members, we can create a unique group for you.

  • Learn a coaching approach to support and challenge your peers to create positve change through insight and action.
  • Learn from diverse perspectives in psychologically safe, confidential meetings. Groups consists of 6-10 leaders from different organizations across the region.
  • Meet virtually for 1.5 hours every other week for five months, for a total of 10 group sessions.
  • Share leadership goals, create accountability, and explore individual and collective leadership challenges within this group of peer leaders.

  • Assess your leadership with feedback gathered from a Leadership Circle Profile™ (LCP) 360
