Group Supervision with Shirley Thompson
“I run my coach supervision groups like an action learning set. Thus, peer supervision which encourages participants to reflect on their ideas and intentions for supervision. People seem to like the format which can be negotiated for the benefit of a particular group.
The format supports coaches as individuals, in their client work and in getting clearer about their boundaries and intentions as a coach. The format also broadens our perspectives to consider everyone’s views: e.g. about ethics and the coaching profession.
For a model of coach development, I like Katherine Long’s supervision model – the self in supervision – which asks “who am I becoming as coach?”. (See Long, K. (2011). The self in supervision. T. Bachkirova, P. Jackson & D. Clutterbuck, Coaching & mentoring supervision: Theory and practice, 78-90.
This group of two has met a couple of times already. A new third person cannot now make this next session, so a spare slot. Would you like to trial it?”
