The Mission of Cognitive Coaching^SM

During the month of April, a time of spring and rebirth in nature, "Sustaining the Journey" will invite you to reground yourself in some of the fundamental tenets of Cognitive Coaching^SM. Through reflection, it is hoped you will reconnect to the roots of this work, be nurtured in your own growth, and commit to a renewed sense of purpose in your coaching work.

Effective coaches stay grounded in the mission of Cognitive Coaching^SM:

The mission of Cognitive Coaching^SM is to produce self-directed persons with the cognitive capacity for high performance both independently and as members of a community.

Take a few moments to consider the meaning of this mission:

• How might you paraphrase the mission?
   
• What are some of the most important words to you?
   
• What are some examples of how you have lived this mission in the last weeks?
   
• What might be the effect of all leaders living this mission?
