In this inspiring and motivating session, Dr. Tom Pomeranz focuses on the four coaching strategies that can serve to dramatically enhance the effectiveness of Direct Support Professionals. This session is designed for supervisors, managers, clinical staff and staff trainers who hold responsibility for the competence of Direct Support Professionals. Tom will detail through role playing and story telling how the four coaching strategies of modeling, supporting, prompting and celebrating can have a demonstrable impact on Direct Support Professional’s performance. This session explains how In Place – Just In Time Coaching allows supervisors to refine protocols, increase staff motivation and enhance the quality of work life for the staff and most importantly the quality of life of those supported. Additionally, Tom explains how In Place – Just In Time training can create a collegial environment and infuse a team spirit. The session addresses the coach’s role in the area of age-appropriateness, individualization, accessibility and meaningful engagement.
By far the best training I have attended in the past two years. Thank you so much for this vital information. I am highly motivated to go make changes in our organization.

Great information! Makes tons of sense and is usable. Problem for me is I thought of tons of things to change and deciding where to start! Grand Island, NE
Best training I've ever attended! I am walking away knowing so much more than I ever have as a manager and I thank you for that. Grand Island, NE
This weekend the men have planned a picnic and they are helping with the shopping, etc. Our 2nd shift staff members have really embraced the 'nothing about me, without me'. On Monday, the men are attending a 'Danger' indoor arena football game in Grand Island. A resident led his annual IPP meeting this week and he talked to us about what was important to him and for him . It was his best meeting since I have been here. We will chronicle our changes as you suggested. I am so excited about the future and we will be undaunted by challenges and the 'underground'. Than you for invigorating us and helping us see things from new perspectives! You are awesome!!

I had participated in the American Self-Advocacy Program and I know that the things you shared are the same as what the people with disabilities told me they wanted. We have a lot of work to do. Chautauqua Resource Center, Jamestown, NY
“Wow” says it all! The best trainer I have ever heard - I learned. I was inspired and energized. Behavior Associates, Owensboro, KY
It will help me be more aware of both myself and the support staff to give the people we serve more control in their environment and their lives. He gave us excellent tools for coaching which will be easy to implement and will ensure staff assist in an appropriate manner. UCP of Utica,
