Handbook of positive supervision

A clearly written, practical handbook that describes an innovative and successful approach to individual, group, and peer supervision, suitablefor use in any environment (clinical, corporate, educational, health, governmental,community).Positive supervision focuses on what actually works instead of on problemsand on supervisees' strengths rather than on their deficits. Thetask of supervisors using this approach is - unlike the more traditionalproblem-solving - to create solutions with their supervisees and to teachthem to apply the same approach when working with their own clients.Essential reading for all supervisors, this book introduces a new formof supervision, based on positive psychology and solution-focused brieftherapy, that is shorter, more positive and hopeful, and more cost-effectivethan traditional methods.
