Why this Summit?
Education is at a breaking point. Teacher burnout is skyrocketing, instructional coaches are forced into crisis mode—becoming the “Olivia Pope” of schools—and leaders lack a clear vision for the power of coaching. Traditional approaches simply aren’t enough.
The 2025 Simply Coaching Summit Series is not just another virtual event.
It is here to disrupt the status quo, empowering instructional coaches and leaders with actionable strategies to create real, lasting change—all delivered live, virtually, to wherever you are.

- You’re ready to build a sustainable, impactful coaching program that supports educators and drives positive change in your school or district.
