“…How can we prepare educators to provide exemplary instruction to all young people? To address these important questions, this study explores a coaching approach, grounded in EI theory, called personal, professional coaching (PPC) as a form of professional development (PD) aimed at improving school leader and teacher effectiveness by enhancing their EI skills (Patti, Holzer, Stern, & Brackett, 2012;Stern, Patti, Brackett, Martin, & Caruso, 2007). The developers of PPC looked at literature in the fields of both coaching and EI, often referred to within education domains as SEL, to design an approach integrating relevant best practices from each.…”

In recent years, school leaders have recognised the need for developing emotional intelligence (EI) skills, such as self-awareness and emotion management, in students and educators. As they seek professional development (PD) to cultivate these skills in educators and their students, they may look to coaching, grounded in EI theory, as a feasible and effective PD option. This article describes findings from a case study conducted with 12 internal coaches in one school Federation in Kent, England from 2008 to 2010. This study explored the benefits and challenges of implementing a coaching programme delivered by educators for educators responsible for teaching EI skills to students. Twelve educators participated in a yearlong coach certification and delivery process grounded in EI theory and skills. Data collection included pre-and post-interviews and online reports from each of six coaching sessions. Findings revealed benefits for both coaches-in-training and clients, including: deeper commitment to teaching EI skills, increases in self-awareness and self-management, and improved relationships with others. While coaches and clients reported positive behavioural changes, lack of support at the leadership level was found to negatively impact successful implementation of the programme. Practice points.

“…The field of Education Leadership has taken interest in using various affective reflective strategies to develop and strengthen interpersonal and intrapersonal skills for effective leadership (Boyatzis, & Saatcioglu, 2008;Patti et al, 2012). There is ample research that supports EI as a predictor of effective leadership (Ayiro, 2009; Boyatzis et al, 2002;Boyatzis & Ratti, 2009;Papoutsi et al, 2019).…”

This exploratory study builds upon the need for scientific studies that measure the impact of emotional intelligence training on educational leadership skill development. Using a quasi-experimental methodological approach, the researchers evaluated the effectiveness of a course in emotional intelligence leadership development in a postgraduate leadership program taken during the program's first semester. The course was grounded in the framework of emotional intelligence by Daniel Goleman. It also utilized concepts and skills from the ability model of emotional intelligence. The sample consisted of 45 aspiring leaders in a New York urban university. The evaluation measures included the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) and the Emotional Social Competency Inventory (ESCI). The preliminary results conducted by paired sample t-tests showed positive statistically significant differences in all the variables of the ESCI and the LPI. Further analysis, with a quasi-experimental pre-posttest design, evaluated the effect of the cohort and maturation. Results showed positive statistically significant differences in all five leadership practices of the LPI, except in the practice of Challenge. Prospective school leaders' perception of their emotional intelligence competencies, measured by the ESCI, also demonstrated significant positive results in all variables except Self-Awareness.
