How to Use Skilled Intuition to Incorporate Skill Building into a Coaching Practice

INSTITUTION: University of Colorado Boulder
LEAD PRESENTER: Alicia Sepulveda
CO-PRESENTER: Alana Davis-Delaria
SESSION DESCRIPTION: Academic skill-building is often a critical component of coaching students in the Higher Education context. However, academic skill-building is not coaching. How can a coach share what a student needs to know while remaining true to the tenants of coaching? Effective Academic Coaches recognize the importance of skillfully maintaining a coaching approach while helping students build skills for success. Participants will leave with an understanding that in holding back advice, coaches can better help students develop motivation, move toward their goals and become more self-determined humans.
