Dr Radomira Gilarova and Dr Sandra Wilson: Reflective Practice and Supervision. A Friend or an Enemy?

Session on 18 November 2021 08:00 UTC - View on timetable

Session

In many of the people-centred professions supervision is accepted as an essential part of accreditation, professional practice and continuing professional and personal development. It is considered to be a positive an essential part of the work the professional does. Research suggests this is not necessarily the case in the coaching profession. As coaching continues to mature as self-regulated profession what role should supervision play in the accreditation and continuing development of coaches?  Join us for a discussion on how we perceive supervision in the coaching world, is it a friend or an enemy? We will pose provocative questions on the topic of supervision and reflective practice. We are interested in sharing our views and hearing yours.

Coaches – enjoy a fresh and judgement-free way of exploring your beliefs and experience of supervision and reflective practice

Supervisors – reflect how coaches think and feel about supervision, use it in your practice to connect with in a more effective and more engaging way

Training providers – consider your role in promoting supervision and preparing coaches for engaging in supervision

Everyone – join the reflective space to look at supervision as a core component of continuing professional development

Our questions:

 What is your understanding of supervision?

 To what extent do you perceive coaching as a fundamental aspect of continuing personal and professional development for coaching professionals?

 To what extent do you perceive supervision as a safe, protected, and disciplined space or a shaming experience?

What hopes and fears do you have about supervision?

 We will  invite you to debate with us beliefs we hear frequently about supervision.

 Supervision is good only for beginning coaches.

 Supervision takes away creativity and flexibility of coaches.

 Supervision is just “nice to have” for coaching practitioners.

 Experienced coaches can reflect on their own without a supervisor.
