Overview:
This workshop overviews key literature on the influence of power in supervision, locates power within a competency-based approach and the Board’s supervision policies and procedures, introduces tools to help supervisors to reflect on and address power within the supervisory relationship, and then leads participants through experiential exercises to consolidate learning into everyday supervisory practice.
Learning Outcomes:
At the completion of the webinar workshop, participants will be able to:
Describe how addressing power fits within a competency-based approach to supervision and the Board’s supervision policies and procedures
Describe tools to reflect on and address power in the supervisory relationship
Demonstrate use of tools to address power in supervision via pair and small-group exercises
Demonstrate alliance building and maintenance skills in supervision via pair and small-group exercises
Describe how to conceptualise power within the supervisory relationship in order to promote safe and effective clinical supervision.
Demonstrate use of feedback and measures to help manage power and promote safe and effective supervision
