Supervision plays a central role in supporting professional practice, practitioner wellbeing, clinical governance and client safety. This anthology, designed as a collection of possibilities rather than a definitive guide, offers a window into a less visible and rarely discussed aspect of practice. Contributors draw on first-hand encounters of supervision to share insights from both professional and public perspectives. These span practice contexts from pre-registration to qualified and into advanced clinical practice and management roles. The accounts include individual, team, multi-professional, independent and public sector experiences within and beyond the speech and language therapy profession. This book:

  • Broadens the discourse and deepens understanding about supervision theory and practice
  • Explores multiple formats and contrasting approaches to lay bare differences in the enactment of supervision as well as variations in underlying assumptions and real-life supervision challenges
  • Holds a mirror up to diverse conversations about supervision across practice contexts and career points to broaden the scope of supervision possibilities
  • Prompts exploration of new ways to engage with and benefit from supervision as an alternative or adjunct to existing, established approaches
  • Demonstrates the clear return on investment in supervision at personal, departmental, service and organisational levels with both professional and public benefit

Illustrated throughout with personal stories and professional wisdom, this book will interest students and practitioners at all stages of their career in speech and language therapy. In addition, it will appeal to other allied health and care professionals. This anthology aims to stimulate reflection on contemporary issues in supervision as well as individual, service and organisational supervision culture and practice.
