Hi All,

Hope you all are enjoying the lovely sunny days and the football.

We’d love it if you could join us in the Twittersphere this Friday 29 June 12-1pm. Using the hashtag #CoachingHE we are discussing this month’s topic which is ‘Busting coaching myths’. The blog to introduce the topic will be revealed this week. 

The topics we've covered so far in the #coachingHE Tweetchat: To coach or not to coach?; Evaluating the impact of coaching; The inner game; Instructional coaching; Peer coaching; Team coaching; Mindfulness & coaching; Democratisation of coaching; Career coaching. You can catch up here: http://sdf.ac.uk/coachinghe

 

If you have never used Twitter nor taken part in a Twitter chat, please have a look at http://sdf.ac.uk/4399/how-do-i-join-coachinghe and learn about twitter chats with the SDF. You are also welcome to keep in touch and give us a shout if you have any questions.

 

Here the leads and champions behind #CoachingHE. On a monthly basis, we have conversations with colleagues within and beyond the HE sector in the UK on topics around coaching. If you have an interest or specialism in coaching, we would like to invite you all to give this initiative a go.
