Inhaltsangabe:

"This book is an essential read for those new to the role of becoming a clinical supervisor. It is packed with practical ideas and activities to try out in the supervision situation and underpinned by relevant theory. An obvious strength of the book is the way Paul seems to 'talk' to the new supervisor in an engaging and non patronising way. At last there is acknowledgement of the 'emotional labour' of being engaged in supervisory work offering strategies to 'look after oneself' when acting as a clinical supervisor in practice."
John Driscoll, Freelance CPD Consultant & Development Coach

"This is a really good book and I have no hesitation recommending it! It is written in a way that is 'true' to my own experience as an experienced supervisor and will be of use to those taking the first steps, those helping others to do so and more experienced supervisors."
Steve Dilworth, Freelance Facilitator

"The author's personal experience of training and supervising has produced a very practical easy to read book with plenty of opportunity to reflect on your own past experiences whilst learning from those that have gone before."
Rachel Condren, Student Nurse, Queens University Belfast, UK
