Supervision for Wellbeing
Participants will observe a live supervision process with an experienced coach (with a particular focus on the realities of team coaching – complexity, multiple stakeholders, systemic pressure). A well‑held supervisory space enables coaches to slow down, name what they are carrying, and reconnect with their own judgement, boundaries and inner resources.
We’ll explore what actually shifted for the supervisee, what enabled that shift, and how this differs from mentoring, peer support or simple venting. We will explicitly link what happens in the room to core dimensions of practitioner wellbeing: emotional containment, reduced isolation, ethical robustness and sustainable engagement with clients and teams.
The session is designed for coaches and team coaches who are curious about supervision but may not yet have experienced it and want to explore its deeper, restorative function. Participants will leave with a clearer felt sense of what supervision can offer them personally and professionally.
The Balcony View: A Systems-Inspired Approach to Coaching
We invite you to step back from the dance of team dynamics and observe the wider system at play. In this experiential workshop, you will explore how a systems-inspired perspective helps teams and organisations access greater clarity, alignment, and creative potential. By learning to work from the “balcony view,” you will connect individual behaviours to patterns, relationships, and the broader organisational context.
