Presented by Growth Coaching International

Tuesday, November 10, 2026·9:00 AM

Growth Coaching International's Introduction to Leadership Coaching workshop is a practical, evidence-based two-day programme that equips educational leaders with core coaching skills for more effective professional conversations. Delivered in-person in Brisbane across two consecutive days, this workshop explores three foundational elements of coaching practice: the GROWTH conversational framework, key coaching skills, and what it means to adopt a 'coaching way of being' as a leader. Since its founding as Australian Growth Coaching in 2002, Growth Coaching International (GCI) has worked with over 40,000 educators worldwide, establishing itself as a leading provider of coaching-focused professional learning for the education sector. Their approach is built on the understanding that effective leadership fundamentally depends on the quality of conversations leaders have with their staff. Participants in this Brisbane workshop learn to conduct more intentional, structured coaching conversations that build the capacity, motivation, and wellbeing of colleagues. The GROWTH framework provides a practical structure for conversations that move beyond directive advice-giving toward genuine capacity building. GCI is an approved coaching programme provider to several professional development organisations across Australia, New Zealand, and internationally.

Key Takeaways

Mastery of the GROWTH conversational framework for structured coaching conversations; development of key coaching skills including active listening, powerful questioning, and reflective practice; understanding of a 'coaching way of being' as a leadership approach; practical tools for building staff capacity, motivation, and wellbeing through more intentional conversations

Evidence base: Evidence-based coaching methodology developed specifically for educators, refined through two decades of work with over 40,000 educators worldwide; grounded in research on effective professional conversations and leadership coaching
