For MPD Coaches, Team Leads and Supervisors

The MPDX coaching tool is for MPDX Users, MPD coaches, and supervisors to have a way to easily see and track the MPD progress of another MPDX user who has opted to “share” their MPD progress tracked through MPDX.

Step One: Have the User You Coach "Share" Their Account With You
Step Two: View the Account You are Coaching
Step Three: Verify MPD Goals and Set Up the MPD Time Frame

When you no longer need coaching access

What You Will See As the Coach of a User

An invitation to view an account shared does NOT give the coach the ability to update or alter their MPDX account and information. It simply allows the coach to view the number of calls, appointments, and overall trend of reaching the MPD goals set. (Similar to other MPD progress reports but without the need to manually enter the data). A coach will NOT be able to see the names, contact information, personal identifiable information, or financial information of any ministry partner. Personal information will be hidden so giving amounts and initials, NOT names, addresses, donor identification numbers, etc. are shared.

We suggest you send the following email to the staff you will be coaching. This will help them know how to add you as a coach.

Hello ______________,

In order for me to be able to act as a coach for you in MPDX I need you to go into your MPDX account and invite me. To do so:

1. Log in to MPDX
2. Go to Settings > Manage Coaches > Manage Account Coaching Access box
3. In the “ person.to.share@cru.org” field, type desired coach’s email address
4. Click “Share Account”

Once you do this I will get an email from MPDX inviting me to accept your invitation.

Along with this, please read the help article at https://help.mpdx.org/article/511-for-those-being-coached and follow the steps there to setup your goal.

I’m looking forward to helping you reach your MPD goals!

Sincerely,

Your Coach

Step Two: View The Account You are Coaching

The staff person you are coaching must first share their account with you. Once they have done so:

Open the automated email invite from support@MPDX.org
Select “Accept Coaching Invite”
Login to your MPDX account
Select “Coaching” tab in the menu bar
Select the staff person you want to view (you may have multiple) by clicking the “See Details” button for the full view

Step Three: Verify MPD Goals and Set Up the MPD Time Frame

Settings > Preferences > Account Preferences
Make sure that the staff you coach has updated their Monthly Goal field with the most current amount, and set up an Appeal that reflects their one-time MPD goals
Working with the staff you coach, determine together and have them manually enter their MPD Start Date, MPD End Date, MPD Goal, and any appeals in progress (instructions on how to do this can be found at https://help.mpdx.org/article/511-for-those-being-coached)

This will help you track their weekly progress in reaching the set MPD goals. Emphasize the importance of keeping MPDX information up to date.

When you no longer need coaching access to an individual's account, remove yourself as their coach, or ask them to remove you as their coach:

To remove yourself:

Go to the Coaching Tab > Staff You Coach > Find their name. Click the "Remove Coaching Access" button next to "See Details" and click "Yes" to confirm when prompted.

Your person you coach can also remove you:

Have them go to their MPDX Settings > Manage Coaches. And click the red "Delete" button next to your name.

What You Will See As the Coach of a User

Note the dark gray Coaching sidebar component to the left of the screen. This sidebar gives a summary of each user coached with basic information to note concerning their progress.

The detailed, full-page view of the coached user’s MPD progress will look like this:

This information gives you a detailed look into the amount of commitments the person you coach has, as well as their level of effort in MPD.

Understand How the Values Change by Component

The dark gray “Coaching” sidebar component shows the Balance, Staff ID numbers, Last Prayer Letter, Weeks on MPD, MPD Report Date, Basic Contact Information, and Birthday/Anniversary. This information is entered by the staff member you are coaching and needs to be updated by them.

Information about the user(s) coached

The “Balance” value is not adjusted by the user and is automatically updated every 24-hours based on donations received through Donation Services
The Staff ID(s) shown reflect all designation numbers associated with the staff member(s)
Last Prayer Letter is based on the most recently logged newsletter task of either “Newsletter - Physical” or “Newsletter - Email”
Weeks on MPD is determined by the MPD Information set in Account Preferences. The number of weeks value is generated by rounding up to the nearest whole week from the MPD Start Date to the current date
The MPD Report Date value is pulled from the MPD Information MPD End Date value in the staff members MPDX settings
Users change their avatar by selecting “edit” on the avatar image in settings > preferences and uploading a photo

13-Month Donation Graph:

This 13-month graph component of a user’s donations is a copy of the one on their dashboard. It updates when donations are added or deleted.

Weekly Appointments and Results:

The Weekly Appointments and Results component tracks the number of Individual Appointments and the Resulting New Monthly Partners, New Special Needs Pledges, Monthly Support Gained/Lost This Week, and Special Needs Gained during each week. Four weeks, or one month, is shown in this component at a time. The columns read left to right with the current week located in the fourth dated column from the left. The date shown is the beginning day of the MPD week being calculated.

The set week range is Sunday-Saturday. Column headings note Sunday as the start (i.e. the week of Sunday 11/18/18 - Saturday 11/24/18 is represented by the column heading Nov 18).

The average column is generated by averaging the 3 completed weeks. It does not include the current week in its calculation.
