“Coaching is unlocking a person’s potential to maximize their own performance”

– Timothy Gallwey

Bridging the Gap between Academic Initiatives, Student Development & Digital Identity

Coaching Mission:

To advance student learning, through enhancing myself as a role model, leader, coach and scholar. Using student development theories as the core of my work, I will help students to grow developmentally, to excel academically and to take risks in the pursuit of their own goals and dreams.

Coaching Vision:

Through living my core values, I hope to empower others to envision their potential, and cultivate their skills and talents to contribute to their overall self, creating a congruent and driven individual, leader and community member.

Coaching Values:

Using an eclectic theoretical orientation, Max blends various theories and coaching philosophies to help students and his colleagues exercise their minds. With Chickering’s 7 Vectors of Identity Development as a foundation, Max infuses existentialist ideals with a person-centered approach to challenge and support students while helping them to articulate their goals, dreams and purpose in life.
