Group Supervision: Notes for Beginners (The Changing Face of Professional and Pastoral Supervision) - Softcover
Book 3 of 5: The Changing Face of Professional and Pastoral Supervision
Synopsis
What do we mean by group supervision? One on one supervision with others watching?; A free for all? The survival of the fittest? Group supervision suffers from being widely practiced but little understood. Managed badly it unleashes exhibitionism in the narcissist and withdrawal in the vulnerable. Managed well it releases creativity, awakens the unconscious and democratises insight. This introductory guide locates our relationship to groups within our families of origin. It identifies the pitfalls, dynamics and wisdom of a practice which amplifies vision and harnesses the energy of groups in the service of the common good. This book will be of use to supervisors, supervisees and indeed anyone who is curious about behaviours and dynamics whenever groups meet.
