  • Summary

  • In this episode of the "Coaching Conversations" podcast, I enjoy a conversation with instructional coach Melanie Matthews Calhoun as she shares her journey and strategies for overcoming challenges in coaching, particularly with resistant teachers. Melanie emphasizes the importance of building relationships, understanding the sources of resistance, and employing effective communication. She discusses different types of resistance—aggressive, passive-aggressive, and passive—and offers practical strategies like "coaching from afar" and maintaining persistence. The episode underscores the significance of resilience, community among coaches, and the ultimate goal of improving student outcomes through effective coaching.
