"Even a quick mention of the word “supervision” anywhere in the coaching world gets a strong reaction. Some coaches love supervision. Some coaches see it as a box to check on the way to a credential. And still other coaches find supervision to be something they're just trying out. Bottom line from my experience: Coaches who are committed to supervision demonstrate that they are serious about their craft and their professional development.What Kirsten Dierolf and colleagues have done in this work is keep the focus on supporting coaches by leveraging the supervision process. Whether it's exploring a change model, client growth, supervision strategy or the ethics of coaching supervision, this book will sharpen your supervision skills and by extension, your coaching.”-Jonathan Reitz, MCC, ACTC, Case Western Reserve University"This book about coaching supervision from a social constructionist/ Solution Focused perspective is an instant classic.
