About this event

Stepping into Supervision: ‘What is it that we are doing here? with Jo Birch

What is it that we are doing here?

Pause a moment. What IS supervision? Whats the contract you are making with your supervisor? Your supervisee? Your self? Why are you taking this hour, or 90 minutes, or afternoon out of your working day and attending this thing called supervision?

Maybe you are thinking the answer is obvious. And maybe it is. Let’s explore!

Once we have an idea of what we are doing, how are we going to stay on track?

This workshop today links to our simple rule:

Serve the intention

This means honouring the contract and agreed purposes in the enounter; being explicit, checking in with each other as necessary.

Supervision is often a longitudenal process – our supervisors/supervisees travel with us across time, and across our learning journey. What conversations need to be had now, that we couldnt have had before?

Has the contract between us changed?

What impacts the contract? Who pays? Who is the contract with/between? Who is responsible for what? What ‘promises’ are we making to each other as we contract?

Let’s see where we get to as we open an exploration of this topic as it relates to supervision.

Join us to explore this together in our living-learning community!

WHAT ARE SIMPLE RULES?

‘Simple rules’ is a term that describes a set of guiding principles, behaviours, we have seen within the practice of supervision that are generative. In other words, if we hold these behaviours, we might amplify the experience of ‘supervision’ as defined by those engaged in it.

Welcome! Do join us for this Introductory series about Supervision.

STEPPING INTO SUPERVISION

Although we take a coaching perspective in this series, these workshops are suitable for anyone entering supervision, or training to become a supervisor, from any of the professional disciplines often known as the Helping Professions.

By coming together in a multi-professional group of coaches, counsellors, psychotherapists, teachers and other professionals we can re-consider some of our own assumptions and beliefs, open our heart, mind and will to new practice and become more clear on what kind of supervision fits best at present.

For those considering becoming a supervisor, each session in this series will offer one dimension of supervision, and with the engagement of colleagues participating in the workshop, old friends and new acquaintances, we might explore from multiple perspectives.

ZOOM

This workshop will be hosted on the Zoom meeting platform where we will use our cameras and microphones to interact with each other as a group.

SELF-SELECT FEE

The self-select fee is a radical inclusion policy to open learning for all colleagues. The guide price for this event is £20.00, however, we appreciate that income varies greatly in different locations and circumstances. Please contribute what you can to help us maintain inclusive professional training.
