What is SPEED COACHING?

• Speed Coaching is a chance for participants (students, entry level professionals and early to mid-career professionals), to connect with COACHES (Managers, Superintendents and Directors).  A coach and 6-8 participants are at a round table to discuss the participant’s career direction and receive advice from you. Participants will gain a wide variety of ideas, suggestions, tips and contacts to help them on their professional journey.

How does SPEED COACHING work?

• Coaches will provide a brief overview of their career path.
• Coaches will ask participants to briefly describe their education, work/volunteer experience and questions to help them on their professional journey.
• This will assist the coaches to offer the best professional advice custom to each participant specific interests and needs.
• Coaches are encouraged to engage participants in conversations for participants to network and mentor each other.
• Coaches will move to the next participants table after 10-15 minutes of sharing their expertise.
• At the end of the coaching rounds there will be a short wrap up and feedback session.
