Three parts to this question –
1. Demonstrate understanding of what Bishop is suggesting
2. Discuss your own views on this – is it accurate? What are the implications of having/not having a managerial commitment
3. Describe how you’ll gain commitment. NB link this, practically, to your current setting and your current role/power base within it.
Cutcliffe, J E & Proctor, B (1998) suggest that “clinical supervision is
a specific skill. While some of the interpersonal skills used in clinical
supervision are transferable from nurse or counselling training, clinical
supervision goes beyond basic interpersonal skills and has its own set
of unique skills”. (p. 281) Discuss.
4. Read Cutcliffe and Proctor!
5. Debate whether supervision is separate or merely an amalgam of skills
6. Compare supervision skills with the skills used in YOUR work (these may differ from those of your peers on the course!)
7. Find a framework to justify your choice of “skills”
8. Consider the implications of your viewpoint
