Final Draft
Coaching Role: What To Do
 
Pro Tip:
 
Create a Google Calendar
Include both Official Deadlines set by Vis
Organizers (available at vismoot.pace.edu) AND
team deadlines (such as draft submission
deadlines)
Share calendar with entire team. Set reminders to
go out to team members before major deadlines.
 
*For a tutorial on how to set up a Google Calendar, see me during office hours*
 
Pro Tip:
 
Demand a 5-10 hours/week commitment at the
outset
Includes team meetings 2x/week, and independent
research/writing
Increase to 15+ hours/week after second draft
Includes team meetings 
at least 2x/week
 (but should
be 3 or 4 as the final deadline approaches) and
independent research/writing
In the 2-3 days before submitting the final draft,
teams should expect to work on the memo
almost full time.
Coaching Role: What To Do
 
Review in detail every draft the team submits
and return substantive comments
 
Work with team members individually to
address their questions
 
Insist on timeliness, commitment, and
dedication from each team member
 
Pro Tip:
 
Identifying issues and addressing questions
providing the answers!
 
Your role is to facilitate learning and guide teams
towards successful competition. You 
are not
responsible for giving your teams the solutions – they
are responsible for finding the solutions themselves.
Cultivate the Vis Culture
 
Set an example:
Always be on time.
Demand hard work and equal participation
from each team member.
Attend team meetings at least once a week
to observe, facilitate, and guide research.
Reward teams for excellence.
Encourage solidarity and team pride.
 
Discussion
 
What will be the main challenges for your
team members? How will you address them?
What are your concerns as a coach?
How will you handle team members who are
not carrying their weight?
How will you help manage team members
who are struggling with the language or the
issues?
