About this event

Stepping into Supervision: ‘What’s love got to do with It?’ with Jo Birch

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

We’ve run this session in the past….and there seems more to explore. Join us and see where the conversation takes us.

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

WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT!

Go on….sing at the top of your voice just like Tina Turner…or perhaps (in my case) only like Tina in my dreams!

However, back to the question about ‘love’. What HAS love got to do with our work? When do we engage with love? And what gets in the way of us loving our clients, supervisees, business colleagues. Of course, you will immediately realise I don’t mean a sexual, romantic love. That’s whole different exploration about transference, counter transference, ethics and standards and more.

The ‘love’ we will explore her in this workshop is something more essential to life. Love of another human being, a person, simply navigating life in the best way they can at any given time… with the resources available.

What if we turned our attention to engaging with love?

One of our simple rules guiding supervision, which we use as the basis for our Diploma in Supervision programme is

Engage with love

bringing kindness and compassion into every engagement

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.

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.
