Podcast appearances and mentions of elena aguilar

After 30 years in the field Elena Aguilar gathered all of her experience and learning and put together the most powerful book on coaching we've seen -- Arise: The Art of Transformational Coaching. Elena sees coaching as the way -- one conversation at a time -- that we transform our schools. In this deeply insightful conversation she shares the importance of coaching more than the teacher BEHAVIORS we are all used to coaching. She shared an example of how, when she coached a teacher to change her behavior -- and change her classroom from rows and direct instruction to groups -- once Elena left, she reverted back to the rows. Elena asked, 'Why?" and the teacher was honest in saying she just didn't believe that groups were the best way for students to learn.  So Elena has come to the conclusion that for coaching to be truly transformative, we need to coach teachers' BELIEFS, BEHAVIORS, and ways of BEING, or the "Three Bs" as she calls it. This approach to coaching is so successful because she acknowledges that teachers are human, and we need to address the emotions that are involved in the job.  Listen to this great conversation, and you'll walk away with several ideas you can use immediately. Elena shares how you can transform that staff meeting you're planning by cutting out some of the content and carving out 6 minutes for people to connect before diving in. She also shared a few tools that she uses in her coaching -- the Spheres of Influence and Gaps Framework -- and once you hear her explain them, you can use them in your conversations and coaching with staff as well. Overall, Elena's ideas from her book Arise all aim at helping you to COMMUNICATE better with staff and creating the CONDITIONS so your staff can thrive.

She shares her perspectives on both the value of writing that comes from academia as well as from the people. In this episode, Elena also shows us why her intuitive and human-centered approach is so powerful. An unexpected moment of vulnerability arises, and she receives it with heart and profound empathy.

After a great conversation at the beginning of summer about what the 5th grade classroom is like, Adrian Neibauer was generous enough to return to the podcast to share about the mindset he is taking into this school year and the incredible community that is already building in his classroom.In this conversation, Marcus asks him about the choices he made in preparing over the summer and especially in the opening weeks of his school year—and then they dive into some deeper questions about the idea of “loving teaching” more broadly. Two pieces by Adrian that are referenced in this conversation (also, you can find everything he shares here on his Substack, which we highly recommend!):* “Turn the Lights Back On” (Aug 12)* “Adrian's Top Five” (Sept 2)Additionally, Marcus mentions a recent Cult of Pedagogy podcast featuring Elena Aguilar, which you can check out here.And as always, we love to hear your thoughts!

There is nothing more powerful that we can do, than knowing our own selves. When we know ourselves, we know how our past affects our present, and forms our vision for the future, and we are so much more empowered!   -Lonely and isolated, she entered into the profession feeling unsure of what she was doing. Belonging and acceptance was the core, as well as building community. That commitment continued in coaching, as a leader, and now as a facilitator of learning spaces. It is one continuous thread as a result of my experiences as a kid.    -I value that commitment to creating community as well as belonging and a sense of acceptance.   -I work from a way, the actions take help to build to reflect  and the connection or community.    -I am aware of the fundamental need for psychological and social safety and connection.   -My commitment and vision in my work is to help  people thrive. The core needs are belonging and connection.   -I have created a community in my life. Classroom community is everything. Feeling valued is everything.    -Knowing and  Doing Gap - We know we want this but not sure how to make this a reality.   -Arise Book- Tell people exactly how to say this and what we do. We need granular instruction.    -We are humans, we get activated, we have emotions. My work comes in when we have to get very specific with people. Try this, say this, do that, shift these beliefs, explore this way of being that you may be acting from.   -Transformational Coaching Rubric: The rubric and model differs from traditional models as it is way more holistic. It encomapasses what it means to be a full range of what it means to be human working in schools both personally and professionally. The new rubric reflects the expansiveness of the model. It is intended to be a guide to cultivate their own growth and development. The rubric names what is most important.    -Cultivate your own responsiveness within the model.   -Emotional Intelligence?- Explore your why!   -Window of presence - indicators of emotional intelligence.   -How do we bring our past into our presence?   -How do we schedule ourselves? Physical movement between coaching sessions.   -Build trust and relationships as a coach.   -Resistance is fear.   -Empathy and compassion - activate   -Be appreciative and curious - build resilience!   -With resistance- build resilience and your perception of others. Let's find a place in ourse;lves where we feel compassionate!    -Let's be human with each other…   -What is possible? We can have conversations.. We can have real connections…   -Resistant vs. showing up defensively, because they are afraid.   -Let's get curious. Empathy. Humility. Curiosity. Be Open.   -Cultivate awareness of yourself. Say things like “Am I getting this right? Can you help me to understand? I am appreciative of that!   -Strategies of resisting trust - always at stake- true honesty and courage. Repair trust . -Cultivate awareness of yourself, be compassionate and aware!    -Naming can be powerful.   -Be appreciative, curious and most importantly listening.   -Build resilience when the well seems low !- Let's start with your perceptions of others. Recognize resistance is fear and can we find a place in ourselves that is compassionate? Feelings of fear are the worst!    -Can we be human with each other?   -We need educational transactions, where there are partners and curiosity and compassionate.Let's reflect on how we interact with one another. Let's consider these possibilities   -What's possible here  and who cares? Who do I partner with? What is possible?   -Learning Library consists of skill sessions.    -Connect with Elena: Twitter: @brightmorningtm Podcast: BrightMorningPodcast Website: https://brightmorningteam.com/  

Teaching is intense, vulnerable work that brings up a range of emotions all day, every day. If we really want to help teachers thrive, we need to go beyond the technical parts of the job and look at how our core human needs show up in this work. In this episode, author and instructional coach Elena Aguilar joins me to explore what it looks like when a teacher's needs for belonging, autonomy, competence, self-esteem, trust, and purpose are not being met, and what can be done to address that. Thanks to EVERFI and Listenwise for sponsoring this episode. For links to Elena's book, Arise: The Art of Transformational Coaching, visit cultofpedagogy.com/pod and choose episode 233.

"Transformative change means feeling different, having different experiences every day, not just little changes that feel like a band-aid." These are the words of today's guest, Elena Aguilar, an instructional coach whose latest book is called Arise: The Art of Transformation Coaching. (https://amzn.to/3Srseot) Through her book and our conversation today, you're invited to teach in a “human-centered, compassionate, wildly optimistic way.” Listen in as we discuss: What “transformation” looks like and how it applies to the work of classroom teachers Why transformation results from addressing the Three Bs: beliefs, ways of being, and behavior… and why that order matters Which conditions allow for beliefs to change and how we can implement them in our classrooms How our “ways of being” as teachers tie to transformation As we look toward the start of a new school year, I hope that Elena's thoughts will help you reimagine what's possible in your classroom, and create conditions for both student transformations and your own.

Show Title: Coaching and a Culture of Learning with Elena Aguilar Power Quote: “To normalize growth, we must normalize making mistakes.”  Description:Before we get started, I need to give a shout out to Dr. Pam Buskey. Today is our anniversary and though the years have flown by too quickly, every one of them has been filled with special moments, big and small. Marriage is a partnership and I am so tankful and blessed to be walking this journey with you. Okay, now we can get started. Today we continue my conversation with Elena Aguilar. We will briefly discuss transformative coaching and then talk about how we change the narrative of coaching from being something for struggling teachers to something that we should all be craving. Guest Bio:Elena Aguilar is a writer, leader, teacher, coach and podcaster.

What are you celebrating today?●      Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?  Part 2: Developing a coaching culture ●      I come from an athletic coaching background. I have this dream that teachers would have access to highly targeted and technical coaching, just like the world's premier athletes. Yet, many teachers don't see coaching as an important tool in growing. What happened? Is there a way to flip the narrative? ●      Do you see unique needs among teachers at different career stages that should inform how leaders engage in coaching with a given group of teachers?●      Is there such thing as a “culture of coaching”? Does it make sense and is it possible to build a school around the idea that teacher growth is the priority and that coaching is the core way we help teacher perfect their craft?●      How has your understanding of coaching grown in the past ten years from the release of The Art of Coaching in 2013 to your revised volume this year? Closing questions:●      What part of your own leadership are you still trying to get better at?●      If listeners could take just one thing away from today's podcast, what would it be?●      Before we go, is there anything else that you'd like to share with our listeners?●      Where can people learn more about you and your work… Wrap-up·      Begin cultivating a culture of learning by making your learning goals, and you work on them, transparent. Model the way of being you want your teachers to embrace. If you have a coach (and you should), brag about it and explain to teachers the link between what you are learning and what you are doing.·      Remember, coaching is only one tool we have for helping teachers to grow, but it is a powerful one.·      We need to align teacher and student needs in our coaching·      And I love this one: Know how the 8-year old you is powering who you are today. The better you know yourself, the better coach you will be.·      We will wrap this with a personal note related to knowing yourself… Close●     Leadership is a journey and thank you for choosing to walk some of this magical path with me.●     You can find links to all sorts of stuff in the show notes, including my website https://www.frederickbuskey.com/●     I love hearing from you so consider email me at frederick@frederickbuskey.com or connecting with me on LinkedIn.●     My new book, A School Leader's Guide to Reclaiming Purpose, is now available on Amazon.

Show Title: The Coaching Relationship with Elena Aguilar Power Quote: “We are social beings.”  Description:In 2013 Elena Aguilar wrote The Art of Coaching. I came across the book soon after and it has shaped the way I view and do coaching. Today's show is part 1 of my discussion with Elena in which we focus defining coaching and identifying the foundations of coaching. There are some great pieces of wisdom in today's show, so please pay close attention. Guest Bio:Elena Aguilar is a writer, leader, teacher, coach and podcaster.

What are you celebrating today?●      Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?  Part 1: Coaching 101 for school leaders●      “It's all about relationships.” Is this true for coaching? What is the foundation of a coaching relationship?●      Can we define what constitutes coaching? What is coaching and what isn't?●      Your framework includes different models of coaching (directive/instructive, facilitative, transformational). This framework has been foundational in helping me to better understand coaching and the coaching relationship. For leaders who are trying to grow their coaching skills, is there a specific model, or specific techniques they should focus on?●      "Fast-food" coaching for administrators who have very little time, is it possible? What is most essential?●      Many administrators feel the need - and have been specifically taught - to provide feedback to teachers outside of a coaching relationship. I am not a fan, unless the teacher has asked for the feedback. Can we talk about the value or harm that comes from unsolicited and unsupported feedback? (Maybe my view on this needs to be reconsidered?) Closing questions:●      What part of your own leadership are you still trying to get better at?●      If listeners could take just one thing away from today's podcast, what would it be?●      Before we go, is there anything else that you'd like to share with our listeners?●      Where can people learn more about you and your work… Closing points:·      Foundations of coaching are trust, listening, and asking·      Coaching is building, not fixing·      Let go of “a grow and a glow” – It doesn't work.·      We can help teachers grow more by emphasizing what they are doing well·      We'll be back next week with part 2 in which we look at transformative coaching and discuss a culture of coaching.Close●     Leadership is a journey and thank you for choosing to walk some of this magical path with me.●     You can find links to all sorts of stuff in the show notes, including my website https://www.frederickbuskey.com/●     I love hearing from you so consider email me at frederick@frederickbuskey.com or connecting with me on LinkedIn.●     My new book, A School Leader's Guide to Reclaiming Purpose, is now available on Amazon.

Over two decades, Elena Aguilar, distinguished as the founder and President of Bright Morning, has ardently devoted herself to education, assuming roles as both a teacher and instructional coach. Throughout this extensive period, she has witnessed a prevalent and pervasive sentiment that resonates deeply within the teaching community—the overwhelming burden accompanying the noble pursuit of shaping young minds. In an earnest endeavor to address this shared challenge, Aguilar has contributed to an ongoing series with the publication titled "How to Coach the Overwhelmed Teacher." Drawing on her wealth of experience, she extends a helping hand to her fellow educators. She presents a comprehensive framework encapsulated in five invaluable tips for effectively assisting colleagues or employees in navigating overwhelming responsibilities. 1. Describe It 2. Recall Previous Experiences 3. Identify a Next Step 4. Listen 5. Plan for Action Elena Aguilar's guide transcends the conventional approach to coaching by delving into the emotional and practical intricacies of navigating overwhelming experiences. By intertwining empathy, reflection, and strategic planning, her framework not only equips educators to overcome immediate challenges but also fosters a resilient and empowered mindset for the continuous journey of teaching and learning. To hear Aguilar go in-depth on her five tips, listen to Episode 257 of the Class Dismissed Podcast on your favorite podcast app or iTunes. Other Show Notes Should Schools Ban Cellphones?

Who you ARE matters just as much as what you DO. How can you show up as the best version of yourself each day, not only for students, but in every aspect of life? I'm talking today with Elena Aguilar, a writer, leader, teacher, coach and the author of seven highly acclaimed books including The Art of Coaching, (2013) Onward: Cultivating Emotional Resilience in Educators (2018), Coaching for Equity (2020), and The PD Book: 7 Habits that Transform Professional Development (2022). Elena is the founder and president of Bright Morning Consulting, and host of The Bright Morning podcast (which is a phenomenal listen, by the way.) She also collaborated with Dr. Rebecca Branstetter and I on the Reversing Educator Burnout course–you can hear her as a special guest expert in Module 2.  Listen in as Elena and I discuss: Why “bringing your best self” brings ease rather than “one more thing” to your plate The power and simplicity of being fully present in challenging moments Trying harder vs letting go The traits and dispositions we display when we are our best selves What to do when you're too exhausted to bring your best self to the classroom Click here to read the transcript and participate in the discussion or, join our podcast Facebook group here to connect with other teachers and discuss the Truth for Teachers' podcast episodes.

What does it mean to lead with inquiry? And what does that actually look like in a classroom or when working with other adults? Today, we begin a four-part series exploring those questions and more about leading with inquiry. 3Ps host Paula Watkins and Jessica Vance, the author of Leading With a Lens of Inquiry, will lead us through this exploration, setting the stage in our first episodes about what inquiry is and how to integrate it into leadership. In the final two episodes, you'll hear Jessica and Paula engage in an inquiry-focused coaching conversation as an example of how others can use a lens of inquiry in their coaching and leading. In this first episode of this series, Jessica shares about her background and current work as an inquiry leader. She makes clear that being an inquiry leader is not exclusionary of being a managerial leader but that leaders can use both approaches in tandem and when most appropriate. Jessica details the need for inquiry leaders to understand their values and for a critical friend to help keep your inquiry leadership focused. She also suggests having the sentence frames “What would happen if…” and “How may/can I…” ready to use in an inquiry process.  Throughout the episode, Jessica and Paula reference the work of Trevor MacKenzie, who you can listen to in previous 3Ps in a Pod episodes on “Cultivating Inquiry,” “Creating a Culture of Inquiry with Kass Minor and Trevor MacKenzie,” and “Diving into Inquiry.” Jessica also mentions these additional resources: “The Inquiry Leader” sketchnote, “Managerial Leader, Inquiry Leader” sketchnote, and “The Ripple Effect” sketchnote can be found at leadingwithinquiry.com/sketchnotes Elena Aguilar's work with the core values of leaders, such as “How Core Values Foster Resilience in Educators,” and other resources available at brightmorningteam.com  Brene Brown and her Daring Leadership Assessment at brenebrown.com/hubs/dare-to-lead/ Kimberly Mitchell's book Experience Inquiry and other resources at inquirypartners.com Jessica Vance's website at leadingwithinquiry.com Jessica Vance's Instagram at instagram.com/jess_vanceedu Jessica Vance's Twitter at  twitter.com/jess_vanceedu Learn more about the Arizona K12 Center at azk12.org.  

Parents often don't see themselves as educators or coaches to their own children or communities. And yet, that's exactly what they are — or at least what they aim to be.

She's the author of seven highly-acclaimed books, including “The Art of Coaching,” “Onward: Cultivating Emotional Resilience in Educators,” and “The PD Book: 7 Habits That Transform Professional Development.” She's also a frequent contributor to Edutopia, ASCD's educational leadership, and EdWeek Teachers, as well as the founder and president of Bright Morning Consulting, which helps individuals and organizations create the conditions for transformation.

-The PD Book: 7 Habits that Transform Professional Development by Elena Aguilar and Lori Cohen  The PD Book -This book grew organically out of leading PD and reflecting on leading PD. It felt like the next thing to work on and bring to the front. -Imagining PD like a party - wanting PD to not be draining, but instead enlivening, exciting, and nourishing. What if PD could feel more like a party or a gathering or experience when you connect with people? Where are you energized?  -There is so much in this book and her work that is research based. When we look at conditions that are essential for people to learn, it is psychological safety. A place where you can ask questions, or discuss, elaborate, and acknowledge things.  -7 Habits that transform Professional Development -Cultivate psychological safety. - How do people interact? -Accept it or fight it.  -Use the strategies and systems from within the classroom and that honor learners as students or adults. -Storytelling: An endless resource for connection and bringing people together. I often guide others in identifying their experiences in their lives to be able to relate to and tell. -A story to share with listeners: Facilitating a beginning of year retreat with conversations around equity. Elena felt, “I can't do this, I can't do this, I can't do this!” I was literally on the floor and at my low as a facilitator. In some ways it helps me to see my own growth and learning. To recognize the low points and to mine them for lessons, and wisdom is huge. We share these moments so others can hear I have been there. Your growth or learning  is powerful. -High points: when facilitating PD. -Responsible cultivators of adult learning - 1. DeterminePurpose - why? 2. Engage Emotions 3. Navigate power 4. Anchor in adult learning  5. Design intentionally. 6. Attend for details 7. Facilitate adaptively -Conditions necessary for people to learn and understand and strategize to facilitate the learning. -Tell me more about what you are actually concerned about? -#1 question: How do you deal with resistance? Only resistance if there is force in two ways. -Resistance is a mask for fear at times.  -We can make every conversation count towards a more just and equitable world! -Disposition is authenticity and transparency: Sometimes people are most moved by me saying, “I want to stop and I am feeling nervous. Can we hit pause for a second? And figure out how we move forwards? If I can be brief and honest, people appreciate this.”    Connect with Elena: Twitter: @brightmorningtm Podcast: BrightMorningPodcast Website: https://brightmorningteam.com/ Next Book Coming Soon - 2023 Art of Coaching 2.0 Book - 2023 Arise, How to Thrive as a BIPOC Educator

An update on my career and the first of a couple of installments of Coaching with Equity by Elena Aguilar. I am a Culturally Responsive Mentor Teacher for next year. I will be working with a para professional or student pursuing a degree in teaching. This will be an amazing reflective journey and I look forward listening, learning and mentoring this young educator mind.

Elizabeth sits down with author and coach, Elena Aguilar to talk about how race shows up in teaching coaching relationships.

How do we understand and engage with the overwhelming emotions we experience as educators—as humans? “I saw an incredible number of beautiful, passionate, committed teachers burn out and leave the profession,” says Elena Aguilar. So, she wrote a guidebook for teachers called Onward to help them build resilience. In this episode, she shares her own resilience journey as an educator with Dr. Catlin Tucker and gives advice on how to begin yours. Listen now.

Self-described teacher, writer, coach, podcast host, mother, partner and daughter Elena Aguilar obviously wears many hats, including as a renowned author – but many of them also have something in common. Particularly through Bright Morning Consulting, an organization focused on helping build more just and equitable organizations, and books like her recent work “Onward,” Aguilar has embarked on a mission to support the journeys of individuals looking to remove the obstacles to equity. Those obstacles also greatly impact the world of education, where Aguilar said she believes that inequity leads directly to poorer outcomes, burned-out teachers and more. It's not a lack of desire, but a lack of resources. On this episode of Change Starts Here from FranklinCovey, thought leader and host Dustin Odham sat down with Aguilar to center on her thoughts and insights regarding education. “Onward” focuses on a simple concept, but one that takes significant work – cultivating emotional resilience in educators. An educator has to be willing to tend to a true journey throughout the school year, from self-discovery in the summer months to building community to start a year, battling burnout in the winter months, and more. It's a rhythm that, when mastered, can give educators more control over their own emotions.

Those obstacles also greatly impact the world of education, where Aguilar said she believes that inequity leads directly to poorer outcomes, burned-out teachers and more. It's not a lack of desire, but a lack of resources. On this episode of Change Starts Here from FranklinCovey, thought leader and host Dustin Odham sat down with Aguilar to center on her thoughts and insights regarding education. “Onward” focuses on a simple concept, but one that takes significant work – cultivating emotional resilience in educators. An educator has to be willing to tend to a true journey throughout the school year, from self-discovery in the summer months to building community to start a year, battling burnout in the winter months, and more. It's a rhythm that, when mastered, can give educators more control over their own emotions. If you or someone you know is struggling with feelings of burnout and uncertainty, visit Elena's Feel Better Program with Bright Morning.

Inspired by Elena Aguilar { @brightmorningtm }, several principal peers, & @TroyLaraviere, I get to reflect on when I failed as a high school Spanish teacher!
