Abstract

Using data gathered from interviews, coaching center observations, a document review, and four focus groups of elite coaches, this chapter assess the organizational resources and supports necessary to support consistently outstanding retention and student success coaching. The organizational elements of the study are arranged and discussed using five themes that are discussed and interwoven throughout the chapter. Theme one is the socio-cultural elements of the organization. This theme looks at coach interactions, the mood and atmosphere of the workplace, mentoring and role modeling. Theme two looks at the elements of highly functional teams using the five-part Lencioni framework of trust, conflict resolution, results, accountability, and commitment. The third organizational assessment is built around the alignment of coaching services and organization supports. The fourth theme explores the coaches' expectations of management, as well as organizational resources and performance incentives. The final theme of the chapter looks at overall organizational performance and provides recommendations for optimizing coaching environments for consistency and success.
