(Essential Coaching Skills and Knowledge) 1st Edition
by Eve Turner (Editor), Stephen Palmer (Editor)
The Heart of Coaching Supervision takes
us on a journey that starts with understanding who we are, and why we
do what we do the way we do it, so that we can help those we work with
understand themselves and their practice. The journey includes our
background and personal and professional influences and considers the
need for self-resourcing to resource others. It examines our being
alongside our doing, to ensure that we can provide the best possible
service to all those we work with.
The book’s highly
experienced contributors provide a unique perspective on supervision’s
benefits. The chapters cover themes that support self-discovery and
resourcing including the three Ps of supervision and coaching, diversity
and inclusion, resourcing, working with intense emotions and the self
as instrument. Nancy Kline’s Thinking Environment© is
explored in a supervision context alongside creative forms of reflective
and expressive writing and resourcing through a peer supervision chain.
The Heart of Coaching Supervision also includes ten engaging, international case studies, considering the role of supervision in depth.
A
key contribution to the field, the book is essential reading for all
coaches and mentors, coaching supervisors and psychologists, managers in
a coaching role and anyone in a helping profession or leadership
position wanting to better understand the wide benefits of supervision.
