Beyond Competencies: When Team and Coach Sensitivities Meet

Monday, June 29, 2026 – 9:00 – 9:45 am EDT
with Dr. Elena Espinal 

We do not observe teams objectively. We observe them through our own sensitivities — and teams arrive with theirs. The encounter between these two systems creates the field where change becomes possible, or impossible.
This session explores five key sensitivities that shape what coaches notice and what they overlook. It then examines how team sensitivities organize behavior in ways we often mistake for problems. You will leave with a framework for seeing what you may have been missing — and a clearer understanding of how your own lens shapes what becomes visible in your coaching.
