Innovation Space (iS) coaches play a crucial role in fostering a dynamic learning environment. Their primary aim is to encourage interdisciplinary learning, which goes beyond the confines of individual disciplines. But what does this entail?
Imagine a space where scientists, artists, engineers, and social scientists collaborate. When an IS coach facilitates a workshop or coaches a team in this space, they encourage students to step out of their disciplinary silos and engage with others’ perspectives, recognizing that each discipline brings unique insights. iS coaches do so by embodying “disciplinary humility”: a mindset infused with humility, inclusivity, and respect for diverse ways of knowing, which requires self-awareness—acknowledging our strengths, imperfections, and growth opportunities.
