Implementation of Conscious Discipline® Transformational Model
(For more information about the Conscious Discipline® Transformational Model please follow this link to see the full document that is a guide for full implementation. Jenny as well as the team at Loving Guidance will walk alongside you to develop a plan that best meets the needs of your organization.)
- Half or Full Day Workshops
These workshops are designed to teach the Skills of Conscious Discipline in progression. Based on the goals and needs of your organization, we will design a training plan that is best for you. We create an engaging learning environment as we model and utilize Structures of Conscious Discipline throughout the training. Our interactive workshops create a balance of teaching through video and examples as well as experiential learning through role play and large group games.
- Coaching
I am from Indiana and if you know anything about the Hoosier State you know we are crazy about our favorite sport—basketball! As I sat at a game recently, I realized how much what I do as a coach in the classroom or home is very similar to that of a basketball coach. There are various levels of coaching that occurs.
- Conscious Discipline® Coaching
Using the Conscious Discipline® rubric we reflect on their current progress and determine what would be most beneficial for their “next move”. There may be some modeling, but more of this coaching is done from the “sidelines” through small tweaks and through strategic planning during the debriefing session.
Using the Conscious Discipline® rubric, we really dig deep into the skills and structures. We also focus more on how these adults can pay it forward through providing mentoring and coaching to others who are new or struggling with their journey. I may also coach them as they provide training opportunities for other parents or teachers in workshops and conferences.
I work with individual or small groups of administrators to help them reflect on their practices using the Conscious Discipline Administrative rubric. We then work together to develop a plan to continue to improve their organizational culture as they implement Conscious Discipline® with their staff.
