Developing Effective State Coaching Teams for Local Leagues

In April 2013, we explore the role of state coaching teams within the League of Women Voters. Every participating state should have a dedicated coach to support local leagues, whether new or continuing. New states face unique challenges, while continuing states may benefit from long-standing practices. With focused training opportunities this summer, our aim is to enhance league participation and effectiveness. Coaches will inspire, motivate, and provide resources to engage local organizations successfully, ensuring vibrant and sustainable community involvement.

  1. What’s Next? April 2013

  2. Your Assignments • 1-2 state coaching teams • State coordinator • 1 state coach for every 2 participating local Leagues • May be new or continuing states • A partner coach • Attend instate training

  3. Each state coaching team is different.

  4. New vs. Continuing States • Will likely work with at least one continuing state • Present different opportunities and challenges

  5. New States • Only 9 states (Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming) • All will be trained this summer and begin coaching thereafter (offers face-to-face opportunity) • Large geography with small, fragile League presence

  6. Continuing States • Began program at various times • May have some or all local Leagues participating • No training opportunity to meet in person (provided by LWVUS) • YOU will be the new element

  7. Let’s play a game. . . • I’m coaching LWV of Place and they’ve been doing a great job. They gained 7 members last year in 2012 and I don’t think they need a coach any more. • LWV of Place thinks that participating in the MLD program will be too much work. They are already struggling to put on a couple events each year. How can we possibly ask them to do this, too?

  8. What would you say? • The local Leagues I coach already do all the MLD stuff, but it isn’t working. • We would love to put on a training to bring on more local Leagues and state coaches, but we don’t have any money. • We can’t find anyone to be a state coach. Everybody is too busy.

  9. Get ready to. . . • Be persistent. • Be patient. • Be surprised. • Be inspired. • Have fun!
