Welcome to this Introductory Series about Supervision.

HOW DO WE WORK WITH THE ‘EDGES’?

An exploration of boundaries and bumps in practice

Where ARE the edges in our practice? how do we know they are there? Can we predict an edge, and our own response?

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.

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.

Shirley Smith

Shirley Smith is passionate about the potential of working with creative methodologies in supervision. She has been actively involved in enabling the ongoing development of leaders as a vehicle in support of wider culture and systemic change.

Shirley works mainly in multi-cultural environments around the globe from her current base in Vienna, Austria. She mainly provides supervision to individuals and small groups who are keen to access supervision as part of their own ongoing professional development and self-care. They also want to develop their own practice in working more ‘creatively’. She has been experimenting more recently with ways of making creative supervision accessible online and also with and without video. A kind of learning laboratory.
