We provide a comprehensive set of practical strategies for school counselors, administrators, and educators to invite students and colleagues to embrace change and grow into their best selves. Every day, educators ask students, staff — and themselves — to change; yet we rarely invite them to articulate the reasons they might want to. That thoughtful invitation is the central approach we teach. For more than 17 years, we have delivered this workshop — ASCA’s Academic Counseling: Enhancing Motivation to Achieve — across 11 states and at 12 national conferences, helping educators apply these methods in diverse school settings.
