Coaching for Ops Leaders

At Ops for Impact, we understand that every school and every leader is unique. That's why we offer personalized coaching for school operations leaders designed to meet you where you're at with your specific needs and challenges. Our approach is strengths based and empathetic, helping you build on your experience by going deep for lasting growth (grounded in Elena Aguilar's Transformative Coaching model). We work closely with you to understand you and your school, identify your goals and enhance your leadership abilities in addition to technical skills to support you in navigating the complexities of school operations leadership. We believe that when school operations leaders are equipped with the right support, mindsets, tools and guidance, they can transform ops excellence at their schools.

This could look like:

  • Coaching for a school based ops leader who's new to education and/ or operations

  • Coaching for a network based ops leader who's new to the role or in the midst of scaling 

  • Coaching for an ops leader to build and refine their leadership and management skills with a fresh perspective
