Developing a Coaching Practice as a Lifelong Learner

“I started at Wright to earn a master’s degree in Transformational Leadership
and Coaching. I was in my mid-fifties at the time; not only did my friends think I was crazy
going back to school at that age, but I thought maybe I was, too.
Time proved all of us wrong. I fell in love with being back in school. The material was
fascinating. Suddenly, I had tons to talk about with my husband, children, and friends when they touched base. Furthermore, I found a new career: coaching.
Today, I am a lecturer and adjunct faculty teaching coaching to mid-career professionals, and I have a thriving coaching practice. Thank you Wright for showing me that lifelong learning is not just a catchphrase - it’s a wonderful way to live and serve.”
- Karen Terry (2012 M.A. Graduate, 2016 Ed.D. Graduate)
Transforming the Coaching Experience

“Prior to Wright, I thought I was a coach because I talked to people and they made some changes based on what I said. However, I noticed I didn't fully understand what my coachees needed. I did not feel confident that I could fully guide them to their greatest potential.
Through the Wright coaching curriculum, I learned what it was to sit with someone, listen to what they are saying, and hear their greater yearning. I am now able to guide my coachees through that process and be with them in a whole new way as they transform.”
- Saundra Gilliard (Current M.A. Student)
Receiving Coaching Feedback From Day One

“I valued the Wright coaching certificate program because I had to receive and give coaching and get feedback.
The opportunity to receive coaching supervision feedback helped me practice deeply rather than only learning about coaching. Starting my coaching in the very first quarter of graduate school was critical for my development.”
- Margaret Dunlap (2022 M.A. Graduate)
