COACHING WEEK

A 4-Day Working Session for Principals Who Can't Afford to Drift

January 25-28, 2026 | Live + Recorded Sessions | Private Cohort

Most principals are exhausted—not because they lack leadership skills, but because they're leading with borrowed vision.

A vision you inherited from the district. A vision you copied from the last strategic plan. A vision that sounds good in meetings but doesn't guide a single decision you make on Monday morning.

In 4 days, you'll create the one thing that changes everything: a vision you actually own.

No more reacting. No more drifting. Just clarity about what you're building and why it matters.

The Problem You're Facing

You didn't become a principal to execute someone else's agenda.

But somewhere between the budget cuts, parent complaints, and district mandates—that's exactly what happened.

You're leading with borrowed vision.

Remember that last district retreat where you spent two days wordsmithing a vision statement? The one hanging in your office that nobody—including you—can quote from memory?

That's not a vision. That's a compliance document.

And here's what happens when you lead with borrowed vision:

Every new initiative pulls you in a different direction
You manage everyone else's expectations instead of leading your school
You work harder each year but get fewer results
The things you actually care about keep getting crowded out
You go to bed Sunday night with that pit in your stomach

You're not failing. You're just building someone else's vision instead of your own.

And without a vision you truly own, every outside demand decides for you.

"I get chills just thinking about the potential of my staff and how my vision will help our students succeed."

What Is Coaching Week?

Four live working sessions where you'll stop leading with a borrowed vision and start building with your own 100% Vision.

A 100% Vision is different from every other vision statement you've written.

It's not vague. It's not borrowed. It's not designed to make everyone comfortable.

A 100% Vision is a clear, compelling picture of what your school becomes when you build it at 100%—no compromises, no settling, no "yes, buts."

Think: 100% of students reading on grade level by grade 2. Or 100% passing Algebra 1 by 8th grade. Or 100% graduating enlisted, enrolled, or employed.

It's the vision you'd pursue if politics, budgets, and other people's opinions didn't matter. And here's the truth: that's the only kind of vision worth following.

Not a vision statement hanging in your office. A vision that guides your decisions when everything feels chaotic.

Here's What Happens:

Day 1: Sunday, January 25, 2026

Break Through Your Leadership Ceiling + Vision Foundations

Day 2: Monday, January 26, 2026

Draft Your 100% Vision (with live coaching and real examples)

Day 3: Tuesday, January 27, 2026

Test and Refine Your Vision—avoid the traps that keep visions vague

Day 4: Wednesday, January 28, 2026

Make Your Vision Real (the systems and pathway you need)

Built-In Catch-Up Time: Thursday–Saturday

No live sessions. Just replays, reflection prompts, and optional "vision polish" work time.

Because I know January is brutal.

Bonus Day: Sunday, February 1, 2026

Decision Day. A closing session to solidify your vision and plan what comes next

How It Works:

All sessions happen live on zoom.
Replays will be available in our private Facebook group
Every session is recorded (watch live or catch the replays)
You'll work on YOUR school with direct coaching from me
Small cohort so you get real feedback, not generic advice

Yes! - Create My 100% Vision

By the End of Coaching Week, You'll Have:

A 100% Vision you deeply believe in—tested, refined, and ready to guide your decisions
Clarity about why your current ceiling is structural, not personal—so you stop blaming yourself for systemic problems
Language you can rely on when making decisions under pressure—no more freezing when your superintendent drops a new initiative on your desk
The ability to stay calmly focused—even when parents are reactive, budgets are uncertain, and politics feel chaotic

Here's what this actually looks like on Monday morning:

When your superintendent drops a new initiative on your desk, you'll know instantly whether it aligns with your vision—and you'll have the language to respond with confidence, not compliance.

When a parent demands you implement their latest concern, you'll be able to listen respectfully and then make a decision based on your vision, not their volume.

When your staff asks "What's the priority this year?", you won't hesitate. You'll know. And they'll feel it.

You won't leave with everything solved. You'll leave oriented, grounded, and clear about what comes next.

I'm Robyn Jackson, a former teacher, administrator and best-selling author of Stop Leading. Start Building and 11 other books on education leadership.

I've worked with over 27,000 principals who felt exactly like you do right now.

And after years of watching capable principals burn out, I realized they all had the same problem:

They were leading with borrowed vision, trying to build schools they didn't truly believe in.

The ones who break free? They stop borrowing and start building with their own vision.

That's what Coaching Week gives you.

Is This For You?

Coaching Week is for principals who:

Feel capable, but unsettled
Know their school can do better—but don't want to react their way there
Are tired of jumping from one initiative to the next
Want clarity before making their next big move
Are done letting outside pressure decide everything

This is not for:

Principals looking for quick tactics or compliance strategies
Leaders who want someone else to tell them what to do
Leaders who prefer reacting to problems rather than thinking clearly before acting

If you're feeling anxious—not because you lack skill, but because you're being pulled in too many directions—this is exactly where you begin.

Here's What Past Principals Say

“

My key realization (last year was my first year as a principal) was that having a concrete, simple, impactful vision will make my life so much EASIER. When I think back on all the decision-making, fire-fighting, budgeting, and resource management—if I had a vision, it would have created an alignment tool for everything I did as a principal.

Julie M.

Principal

“

I learned that it is ok to dream big (ok to want more for your students than just improved test scores). In the past, vision statements I were familiar with or created were often vague and hard to measure. This process taught me that clarity is important. I also learned that you can't make your vision fit within the school you currently have (that's when you run into the yes, buts!)—you have to start with your vision and build outward.

Here's What Happens If You Don't Do This

Without a vision you own, 2026 will look exactly like 2025.

You'll spend another year exhausted, reactive, and wondering why you became a principal in the first place.

You'll jump from initiative to initiative, never building anything that lasts.

You'll make it through—because that's what you do—but you won't lead. You'll survive.

And the work you actually care about? The reason you took this job in the first place?

That'll keep getting crowded out by everyone else's agenda.

Why Now?

This is the only time I'm offering Coaching Week this year.

That means if you miss this, you'll spend the next 11 months without the one thing that makes everything else easier: a vision you actually own.

Note: Coaching Week starts Sunday, January 25, 2026.

That's 11 more months of:

Waking up Sunday night with that pit in your stomach
Your best ideas getting sidelined by someone else's agenda
Knowing your school could be better but not knowing how to get there.

By the time this comes around again, you'll have survived another year—but you won't have built anything that matters.

Here's What Past Principals Say

Ace M.

Principal

" In the past, writing a vision statement for our school was a tedious task that divided our staff and resulted in vision and mission statements that were clunky and not actionable. A Builder's Vision gets to the heart of why we are here and what we are going to do for our kids."

”

Jasmine W.

Principal

"This was so much better than what I've had to trudge through before with large committees and so much word-smithing! This is my vision and it's what I'm passionate about, not something I need to memorize."

”

Common Questions

"I don't have time for this in January."

I know. That's exactly why we built integration days into the schedule—no live sessions Thursday through Saturday. You can catch up on replays when it works for you during the week. This is designed for overwhelmed principals, not people with open schedules.

"What if I can't make the live sessions?"

Every session is recorded and available throughout Coaching Week. Many participants never attend live—they watch on their own time during the week and still get incredible results.

"Is this just another vision-writing workshop?"

No. This is a working session where you actually create a vision you believe in—not a committee-approved statement nobody cares about. You'll leave with clarity, not just a document.

"What happens after Coaching Week?"

Many participants continue their journey with ongoing mentorship through Buildership University, where I help principals like you implement their vision and navigate the obstacles that arise. But that's not required—Coaching Week stands alone.

"Why is this only $37?"

This is intentionally low-cost because the goal is commitment, not revenue. It's paid because free advice is easy to ignore—and you're done ignoring what needs to change. Think of it as your commitment to yourself.
