The Scaling Board · for ADIs & PDIs
Scale the conversation. Drive progress.
Feedback fades. Visible progress sticks. The Scaling Board is the simple in-car tool that turns every coaching conversation into clear, visible progress the pupil can see.



The three rules
Place the cars. Have the conversation.
The board is simple on purpose. The three rules are what change everything.
The pupil picks the number
Never score for them. The moment they choose a 4, they own the 4, and they own the plan to get to a 6.
Build on the positives
“What’s already making it a 4 and not a 2?” That question surfaces the strengths to build on before you touch a single fault.
One small step
Not “get to 10”. “What would make it a 5 next time?” Small, owned steps are how confidence and competence actually grow.
The framework
One simple flow. Three moments that matter.
Start
Set the focus in the box, then ask “where are you now?”
Middle
Pull over. Has the number moved? What moved it?
End
Reflect. Where are you now, and what’s the goal for next lesson?

The magnetic Scaling Board with a wipe-clean focus box, plus moveable car tokens for the pupil’s NOW and GOAL positions. It sits on the dash or the passenger’s lap and packs flat in the door pocket.
