My Coaching Supervision Principles

  • You can bring everything and anything into a supervision session (issues which are technical, ethical, personal, or commercial in nature).
  • I can be your supervisor, coach, mentor, critical friend, listening ear, cheerleader, sounding board – you will choose what you need from me in each supervision session.
  • I will work with curiosity and openness.
  • I will respect your competence and trust you as a fellow professional. 
  • I will help you discover what is on the ‘edge’ of your awareness.
  • I will share transparently what I see in your coaching work.
  • I will share my own learning experiences and perspectives.
  • I will clarify good coaching practice. 
  • I will highlight potential ethical concerns.
  • I will share any concerns I have about your practice directly with you, and invite the same in return.

Testimonials from coaches I have supervised…

“Thank you so much for today’s session. Always delighted! and everytime I feel like I learn more and more and gain more and broader perspectives about what a professional coach should be. It gives me space to grow not only as coach but also as an individual. THANK YOU!”

Rini, ACC, Jakarta

 

“As my coach supervisor she has been supportive and challenging at the same time. She gives me a safe space to reflect and look at my growth areas with kindness. She also offers much needed guidance and suggestions from her experience and referring to coaching frameworks. Working with her allows me to reflect on my coaching with kindness and my learning journey with optimism. Julie also provides an amazing space of companionship where just hearing “I’ve been there too, this is normal and I’m here for you” has been so important for me.”

Lucy, ACC, Brisbane 

 

Mentors and Supervisors need knowledge and skills over and above those of a coach and these are different from that of a highly experienced coach.
