Many
counties and jurisdictions in California are implementing Safety-Organized
Practice (SOP)/Signs of Safety (SofS). One key element for successful
implementation is coaching! We will be
hosting a series of monthly webinars as an opportunity for learning about
coaching to the practice of Safety-Organized Practice. We will be examining skills of coaching,
enhancing our understanding of the practice, and focusing on dilemmas,
challenges and successes of both the practice of SOP and coaching.
Coaching: a process by which the coach creates structured,
focused interaction and uses appropriate strategies, tools and techniques to
promote desirable and sustainable change for the benefit of the learner, in
turn making a positive impact on the organization
