Why I believe in supervision, and the origin of my approach
My approach aligns with the Association for Coaching (2023) core principles of competence development, capacity for reflection, credibility and value creation as well as group work. Experiences of being supervised, come from five different supervisors. I have taken that role modelling into growth of myself, as a human, coach, and coach supervisor. On maintaining supervision during a difficult period in my life, I agree with Morgan (2019), that supervision is an essential part of coach self-care. It supported me to identify when supervision was appropriate, and when another service (therapy) was more valuable. The philosophy that supervision cuts across several areas is something I am keen to bring to supervisees that work with me, to support them from a restorative, normative and formative perspective (Proctor, 2008). My model emerges from combining several – Full Spectrum Model (Murdoch & Arnold, 2013), Hawkins & Shohet (2012) and the AC supervision framework (2023) (noted in brackets in principle numbers through this document).
Why bother with supervision?
It took time (in the early days) to believe I had enough experience (or funds) to pay for supervision, and supported myself referencing books, mainly from a “how to” perspective, with Kim Morgans Coach’s Casebook (Morgan, 2015) being my go to.
Di Girolamo (in Erdos and Iglesias), states that without accurate appraisal (from an external source), the information you gather about your practice will be replete with bias and inaccuracy. As a supervisor, I ask the insightful questions coaches may not be able to surface themselves.
A book just cannot capture the unique and reflective nature of the human! I bring my own lessons in learning how to reflect to my coach supervision practice (AC principle 1.2 use of self in open, honest, transparent way). It was those nuances that I was missing, supervision enabled me to unleash my power!
