Super-supervision: back to basics with Shaen Milward
This is a practical webinar for both supervisors and supervisees who want to get more from the supervision process, whether they are delivering it, receiving it, or shaping a stronger supervision culture. The session will revisit the core purpose of supervision, explore what makes supervision effective, and consider the attitudes and conversations that help it become a meaningful professional space rather than just a routine meeting. We will cover key functions of supervision, common pitfalls, the shared responsibility of both parties, and simple approaches that support reflective thinking, accountability, professional growth and psychological safety. Suitable for those new to supervision, as well as experienced practitioners wanting to refresh and strengthen their practice.
