Confidence in Speaking Up to Peers

Suggested Strategy: Use Whiteboard Coaching to help the individual

visualize what confidence in speaking up for themselves looks like.

Suggested Questions:

→ Rating Question: On a scale of one to six, with six representing that

you are one hundred percent confident in appropriately standing up for

yourself with your peers, and one representing that you do not stand up

for yourself at all, where would you rate yourself and why?

→ Success Imperative: What actions do you think we could take together

to successfully help you move toward a six?

Suggested Activities:

→ Whiteboard Coaching: On the left side of a whiteboard, write down the

things that the individual believes may be currently holding them back

from standing up for themselves to their peers. On the right side of the

board, write down how the individual would describe what it looks like to

stand up for yourself confidently and appropriately to peers. Then,

erase the left side of the board (signifying that they are going to be

moving past the barriers that keep them from standing up for

themselves) and create a strategy together for the individual to take as

they need their voice to be heard going forward.
