Let’s work on spreading and cultivating the Be a Coffee Bean message. After hearing from so many clients, districts, and organizations all over America about the need for a follow up professional development, I am excited to announce it is finally complete.

A curriculum team has turned all four of my books into professional developments for any team, network, or organization on the path to continuous growth. My team has grown to include a certified Be a Coffee Bean trainer, who goes in to perform the PD workshops. Our trainer will come in and present a professional workshop of your choice-- which is approximately 3 hours per workshop. The workshop can be less or more time depending on your needs. Each workshop includes 5 interactive activities

    I have found that many clients will schedule an AM staff workshop and PM staff workshop on a designated “staff development” day and schedule the student leadership workshop the following morning when the students have returned to school.
