Being a supervisor is a privilege and it's hard work! Sometimes the people management challenges are magnified when supervising a team in the human service industry and the field of IDD. This session will focus on a Person-Centered Supervision Model which, at its core, has the values of empathy, positive regard, and appreciation. When we supervise using this model, we build strong relationship with our team members, maximize their professional development, and build loyalty and trust. Attendees will gain an understanding of Person-Centered Supervision and why it is important to the team member, the organization, and the people supported.
Person-centered supervision puts your team members at the center of the conversation. This approach builds a foundation of shared trust, respect, and perspective-taking and supports an environment of performance achievement and well-being.
Managing our emotions and leaning into difficult conversations are important leadership skills to develop. Gina's work with Open Future Learning is an important step in providing those in leadership roles in human service the training they need to be effective, person-centered supervisors!
