IC Done Well Roadshow: Partnership Principles

Welcome to another of our Instructional Coaching Done Well Roadshow mini-series episodes. In this episode, I'm delighted to be in conversation once again with Dr Jim Knight - author, researcher, and co-founder of the Instructional Coaching Group. For many people around the world, Jim's work has shaped how we think about coaching in schools and at the heart of that work sits today's topic of discussion - the Partnership Principles. These seven principles — equality, choice, voice, dialogue, praxis, reflection, and reciprocity — offer not just a framework for coaching, but a way of being in relationship with others. They help us think deeply about what it means to honour the humanity, autonomy, and potential of the people we work with every day. In this conversation, we explore where the Partnership Principles come from, what they look like in action, and how they can shape not only our coaching conversations — but also the culture of our schools and organisations. This is a must listen. Richard Reid – Podcast host.
