Abstract	You don't want this book--you need this book. Why this confident claim? Think about how many times you've walked away from school conversations, sensing they could be more productive, but at a loss for how to improve them. Enter instructional coaching expert Jim Knight, who in "Better Conversations" honors our capacity for improving our schools by improving our communication. Asserting that our schools are only as good as the conversations within them, Jim shows us how to adopt the habits essential to transforming the quality of our dialogues. As coaches, as administrators, as teachers, it's time to thrive. Learn how to: (1) Coach ourselves and each other to become better communicators; (2) Listen with empathy; (3) Find common ground; and (4) Build Trust. Our students' academic, social, and emotional growth depends upon our doing this hard work. It's time to roll up our sleeves, open our minds, and dare to change for the better of the students we serve. You can get started now with "Better Conversations" and the accompanying "Reflection Guide to Better Conversations." [For the accompanying "Reflection Guide," see ED628718.] (As Provided).
