Success coaches assist students in reaching their unique academic, career, and personal goals. To this end, coaches provide students with questions, observations, feedback, encouragement, support, and accountability. They draw from researched frameworks—including Growth vs. Fixed Mindset, the Transtheoretical Model of Change, Positive Psychology, and Motivational Interviewing—and focus on the present and future, with a concentration on time-limited, action-oriented results.
