Intro

We have launched our internal coaching program and are excited to now offer coaching to Faculty & Staff by our certified in-house leadership coaches (in addition to previously existing coaching offerings through external coaching partners). As part of this program, UTRGV employees can submit an interest form to receive in-house coaching. Two (2) ways to request a coach:
  • Self-request
  • Supervisor request 

After an interest form is successfully submitted, a coach will reach out to schedule a brief discovery call to determine next steps. A  submission of an interest form itself does not automatically guarantee a coaching engagement.

The interest form is available at the bottom of this webpage. Please note that all coaching engagements (with internal & external coaches) are being managed through the Office of Human Resources. If you are currently working with an external coach, sponsored/engaged by UTRGV, please contact us at coaching@utrgv.edu.

For any additional questions, please contact us at coaching@utrgv.edu

What is Coaching?

Coaching is a partnership (defined as an alliance, not a legal business partnership) between the Coach and the Client in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the client to maximize personal and professional potential. It is designed to facilitate the creation/development of personal, professional or business goals and to develop and carry out a strategy/plan for achieving those goals. Coaching is not therapy and does not substitute for therapy if needed, and does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental disorder or medical disease.

A coaching session is designed to ask questions that create space for self-reflection that will turn into action to help achieve goals in both professional and personal life
