Ground Rules for Peer Coaching

1
Be 100% Present:

Put away phones and distractions to give your full attention.

2
Listen to Understand:

Avoid the temptation to jump in with your own story or solution.

3
Maintain Confidentiality:

Trust is the foundation. What's said in the session, stays in the session.

4
Ask, Don't Tell:

Use open-ended questions (What, How, Why) to guide discovery.
