I feel I had time to improve my GROW inquiry questions.
100% Agree/Strongly Agree It was very helpful in practicing the GROW model for coaching.

CFE Leadership Peer Coaching ProgramImpact Results 2018-19
Survey Highlights Data Remarks
Leadership Peer Coaching Group Dynamics
I was able to provide effective feedback to my peers and receive effective feedback from my peers.
I feel that peers in the Leadership Peer Coaching Program care about each other.
I feel connected to others in the Peer Coaching Program.
100% Agree/Strongly Agree We have a wonderful group. I really like that our peer coaching group includes faculty representing different UNC disciplines as well as levels of leadership experience.
I feel totally comfortable speaking to the group about my challenges because I trust that they will keep the issues confidential as well as provide excellent coaching to help me through the difficulties.
Describe the degree to which the Leadership Peer Coaching Program supported you meeting your goals.
The Peer Coaching group has really improved my listening skills. I also found that coaching was a great way to help a colleague with a problem without feeling pressure to “solve” the problem for them. It has made me a more thoughtful leader, which is a great skill to have!It was very helpful in practicing the GROW model for coaching. I felt strongly supported in my goals.
CFE Leadership Peer Coaching Program 2018-19Describe what aspect of the Leadership Peer Coaching Program was the most beneficial to your
leadership.
Support from colleagues who all showed improved coaching skills. Feedback from facilitator, June
Merlino. Overall very beneficial to be able to serve as coach and coachee.
GROW model feedback from June peer support
The opportunity to practice coaching skills at each meeting.
Learning the GROW model was very helpful. The second was just the diverse team of
coaches/leaders present who were able to contribute helpful ideas and perspectives on shared
leadership challenges.
The peer coaching was really great! I liked doing individual and group coaching. I liked getting to see
how other people approached the coaching process as well as getting to be coached and to coach
others. The feedback at the end of the sessions from June was also very helpful.
The opportunity to practice active listening with cues from the GROW model.
Learning how to listen effectively and guide people toward their own solutions. Often, the problems
that the coachee initially described were not the source of the true issue that the coachee faced. It
was really cool to be able to tease out the "real" issues and move toward goals/solutions.
How to build a coaching culture?
A coaching culture emerges from a coaching cascade, going all the way to
building coaching into the execution of business plans (Riddle, IOC Presentation):
