An Introduction to Coaching Supervision
“Supervision is an opportunity to bring someone back to their own mind, to show them how good they can be.”
- Nancy Klein.
As a coach, we can dedicate ourselves to helping others achieve their goals and unlock their potential. But who supports our growth and development?
Coaching supervision provides a vital space for reflection, learning, and professional development. It's an opportunity to explore your coaching practice, address challenges, and continuously refine your skills - under the guidance of an experienced supervisor of course.
As an ICF & (soon to be) EMCC Approved Coaching Supervisor with over 20 years of specialised experience in Coaching, Coach Training, Training Design, and Facilitation, I am passionate about helping coaches rediscover their potential and excel in their profession.
What Will You Get Out of Coaching Supervision?
Ethical Practice and Client Welfare: Explore ethical dilemmas and complex situations in a safe space, ensuring you always act in the best interest of those you partner with.
Continuous Professional Growth: Identify your strengths, areas for improvement, and set meaningful professional development goals.
Enhanced Coaching Skills: Refine your coaching techniques, communication, listening, and questioning skills. Discover new approaches and tools to expand your coaching toolkits.
Emotional Support and Resilience: Process your own emotions and reactions to your coaching work, develop self-care strategies, and build resilience to minimise or prevent burnout.
Increased Confidence and Credibility: Demonstrate your commitment to professional excellence, enhancing your confidence as a coach and your credibility in the marketplace.
What You Need to Bring to Coaching Supervision?
To make the most of your coaching supervision experience, I would recommend you to bring:
An open mind and willingness to learn more about yourself
Specific coaching cases or situations you'd like to gain more perspective on
Reflections on your recent coaching experiences
Questions about coaching techniques or approaches
A commitment to your own growth and development as a person and as a coach
