Manager supervision

An individual who is dealing with their personal professional care and receives focused group attention to the issue and reflects on their case, increases their learning effectiveness up to 4 times compared to standard training

Many companies ask: “We have already taught managers a variety of skills, and they have attended many trainings and sessions, what else can we provide for them?”

It is important to note that managers do not necessarily have to learn from external sources and that learning from their own experience and from that of their colleagues can be very beneficial. During supervision sessions, managers discuss their personal cases from real professional lives or discuss various issues. During the supervision process, they both deal with these issues and involve other colleagues. Practical experience shows that learning based on real-life situations and their analysis can be particularly effective and beneficial.

What solutions are available?

  • Personal supervision (search of a solution to a specific personal professional issue).
  • Permanent ongoing supervision group (5–6 people) (a group that meets once quarterly to help each other deal with professional challenges).
  • One-time supervision group (up to 15 people) (normally a session after the completion of training in order to overview the participants’ experience using the knowledge acquired during training).

Value for the organisation

Creation of a culture of independent learning from experience, which encourages managers to critically assess their own working methods.

Value for the team

Managers who are able to reveal their vulnerability and are actively dealing with tension are better at moderating teamwork, demonstrate strong people-orientation, and are able to create relationships based on trust and collaboration.

Value for the individual

Improved reflection abilities and interpersonal competences: the ability to learn more about another person, to be empathic, and to help another person. Solving of issues encountered in the work process and prevention of similar issues.
