In this MASSP and Michigan Virtual webinar, Leadership Coaching for Innovation: What It Is, What It Isn’t, and Why It Works, educational leaders explore how intentional coaching conversations unlock the potential within people and systems. This session unpacks the difference between coaching and mentoring, highlights research-based conversation pathways that spark reflection and problem-solving, and demonstrates how one-on-one coaching builds trust, accountability, and sustainable change. Participants learn how leadership coaching makes thinking visible, deepens reflection, and empowers leaders to actively shape innovation rather than simply react to change. Whether you are navigating complex challenges or driving transformational initiatives, this webinar offers a practical, scalable approach to leading innovation with purpose, clarity, and creativity.
