Coaching Skills Proficiency Survey Copyright © 2011 by Janet Baldwin Anderson, Ph.D. The following list of ratings describes levels of proficiency in core skills associated with masterful coaching, inspired learning facilitation, and cultural diversity competence. This survey assesses your current level of proficiency in each of these core skills. Individual results will be kept completely confidential. Thank you for your participation! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ratings. The ratings below describe approximately equally spaced points on a 7 point Likert scale, where 1 indicates the lowest level of the rating and 7 indicates the highest level of the rating. Rating of 1, Beginner, indicates an interest in the skill without proficiency. Rating of 2, Very Limited Proficiency, indicates the barest beginning level of proficiency in the skill. Performance is limited to occasional demonstrations of the competency under very limited and carefully structured conditions, circumstances, or settings. Rating of 3, Limited Proficiency, indicates a developing ability to demonstrate the skill under a limited range of conditions, circumstances, or settings but not yet at a consistent level of performance. Rating of 4, Moderate Proficiency, indicates an ability to demonstrate the skill consistently under moderately varied conditions, circumstances, or settings. Rating of 5, Moderately High Proficiency, indicates a moderately high ability to demonstrate the skill consistently under varied conditions, circumstances, or settings. Rating of 6, High Proficiency, indicates a high ability to demonstrate the skill consistently under a wide range of conditions, circumstances, or settings. Rating of 7, Master, indicates a very high ability to demonstrate a complete mastery of the skill consistently under all conditions, circumstances, or settings.
