On Being a Supervisee

Book excerpt: This book empowers supervisees to take responsibility for their supervision and learning, and aims to persuade supervisors, and organisations that pay for staff supervision, to allow supervisees to do so. Developments in the world of supervision, education and neuroscience have added substantially to the literature and practice of supervision since the publication of the first edition of this book. This fully revised second edition integrates these developments and includes two new sections: the addition of 'learning from experience' to make seven supervisee skills; and, a larger, more elaborate section on reflection outlines the six levels of reflection.
