At The Breakthrough Coach, our vision is centered on producing breakthrough results in schools through a transformation of the school leader and secretary roles. Our mission is to serve educational leaders who need a proven method for gaining more time for instructional leadership and improving student outcomes without sacrificing healthy work-life boundaries for themselves or their staff. For more than 25 years, our Professional Development Program has supported new instructional leaders and profoundly influenced experienced ones. By teaching leaders to create productive front-office environments, we help them reduce their workloads by 1520 hours per week while increasing their time in classrooms by 500%. This approach enables administrators to give greater attention to sustainable improvement throughout their schools while maintaining a healthy personal life.
Our work began in 1998, and since then we have served approximately 100,000 administrators and their secretaries in the United States and internationally. We have presented at numerous professional and academic gatherings, where the strong response to our presentations and phased approach to administrator challenges has generated many repeat invitations. We are committed to helping educators discover new ways to transform instructional leadership. Our services and resources include The Foundations Course, Webinar Series, Personal Coaching, program calendar and registration, FAQs, testimonials, case studies, and opportunities to learn from our graduates. Contact us to discuss how The Breakthrough Coach can help improve student outcomes, increase staff satisfaction and retention, and support healthy work-life boundaries.
