10 Top Tips to Carrying Out Effective Supervisions
Here are our 10 top tips to an effective supervision...
1) Notice - Give plenty of notice of when the supervision will be.
2) Respect and value the persons input and ideas - this creates a positive relationship.
3) Be open and honest - lead by example, if you are open and honest, they are more likely to be too.
4) Listen to the person and ensure they feel 'heard'.
5) Avoid distractions - ensure the environment is free of distractions for both of you and turn your phone on silent.
6) Approach the supervisions with a positive attitude - this shouldn't feel like a chore to get out of the way.
7) Give praise - it isn't all about how they can improve but also acknowledge what they are doing well.
8) Discuss any problems or issues - don't shy away from them - come up with a solution together.
9) Make sure any actions agreed are achievable.
10) Read and agree the supervision record - ensure you both understand what is being agreed.
Everyone has something to learn or to refresh the knowledge and skills you already have, even supervisors.
