Coaching is not
a solo mission.
We believe in the IMPACT of collective growth.
Equipping everyone from the individual instructional coach to school leaders to district administrators with accessible and proven strategies that enhance coaching outcomes — creating a positive IMPACT for schools, teachers and students.

It’s no secret that instructional coaches and school leaders struggle with implementing impactful coaching models due to resistant teachers and punitive coaching culture.
Many existing models fail to adapt to the current climate and culture of schools.
Born out of firsthand experience with resistance to coaching, our comprehensive framework was designed to tailor instructional coaching programs to the unique needs of students and staff.
The SIMPLE
approach to creating
impactful schools:
THE FOUNDATION
The S.I.M.P.L.E. Shift lays the groundwork for creating impactful schools by transforming school culture. Rooted in the work of Dr. Anthony Muhammad, it sets the stage for sustainable improvements through leadership and coaching. By addressing cultural challenges and fostering collaboration and trust, the SIMPLE Shift creates an environment where coaching programs can thrive and lead to long-term success.
THE IMPLEMENTATION
The S.I.M.P.L.E. Blueprint is a practical guide for developing impactful coaching programs in schools. It aligns coaching systems with your school’s culture, ensuring that programs are sustainable and results-driven. By providing clear strategies and tools, the SIMPLE Blueprint helps schools implement coaching cycles, track progress, and make lasting improvements.
By focusing on collaboration and the belief that “Coaching is not a Solo Mission,” we empower school leaders and coaches to work together in transforming their schools into impactful learning environments.
This approach ensures that every educator feels supported and every student has access to excellent teaching, leading to a thriving and successful school community.
Coaches get the Collaboration Builder Toolkit and discover year-round activities that make Professional Development (PD) more collaborative to drive growth.
School Leaders get the Engagement Builder Toolkit with weekly check-ins to strengthen connections with your teachers and boost teacher satisfaction.
