Course details

The demand for personal and team support in the workplace appears to be increasing. Certainly talent management is an issue high on the agendas of organizations and Supervision and mentoring can form a valuable part of a talent management strategy. Also, an increasingly busy working life, partially driven by technology –think of the hundreds of emails you plough through every day – means that people are searching for ways to act more effectively and efficiently.  

Supervision is universally seen as a crucial ingredient for success in a wide range of professional groups from those working in the health care sector to management development. Professional supervisores tend to work in isolation and can easily become very subjective about their work. In the last few years, supervisor supervision has been increasingly called for by user-clients and 'professional' Supervision bodies. However, "supervision" certainly doesn't fit for many experienced people developers looking to develop a Supervision practice or to simply use the Supervision model of change and learning inside an organization. These groups of people developers typically prefer a mentoring model as a means for practice support.
