This week, we congratulate Kim Gishi for receiving the Provo Way Award. Great success coaches balance the tightrope walk that provides encouragement and accountability for youth. They’re action-oriented motivators who know how to build others up, which goes for building up teachers, too. Kim is a success coach who uplifts others everywhere she goes in fun and unique ways. You’re in luck as either a teacher or a student if you know Kim, from the sound of Leilani Nautu’s nomination: “Not only does Kim care about the kiddos and developing relationships with them, but she also takes care of us teachers. She does scavenger hunts, cereal breaks—all kinds of fun things, and we’re lucky to have her.” Read the full story at provo.edu.
