Supervision to Advance Success and Excellence

An Evidence-informed, Skill-based Model of Practice

for Supervisors and Middle Managers

 

Los Angeles, CA

Wednesday – Friday, October 21-23, 2015

9:00 AM – 4:30 PM

 

Overview: Supervision to Advance Success and Excellence is an interactive, skill-building three-day course that focuses on the essential practice elements of the functions of supervision. Unlike other trainings and seminars, this course is designed to enable new and experienced supervisors, and middle managers to learn and enhance their competencies implementing evidence-based skills to provide guidance appropriate for individual staff; promote engagement and commonality of approaches between levels of management to achieve organizational goals; enhance supervisor and middle manager skill in leading for development of collaborative partnerships in supervision; and create opportunities for supervisor-supervisee relationships that support coordinated and effective team functioning. These supervisory functions - Leading, Planning, Organizing, Teaching, Supporting, and Evaluating, are explored in detail through discussion of literature, self-assessment tools, informative handouts, group exercises, and role play based on case and situational examples.  Practice elements critical to supporting professional engagement, partnership, and team building in supervision are highlighted to align with research and best practices that show the quality of supervision impacts every aspect of an organization’s ability to achieve desired outcomes for children and families, and that supervisors influence the retention and support of staff to maximize their performance and professional development potential.

 

Participants: This course is designed for public and private agency, new and experienced supervisors and middle managers.

 

Facilitators: An engaging team with expertise in supervision, management and teaching will facilitate.
