Supervision
Luxembourg, Switzerland, France

Supervision is the interactive process whereby a coach or consultant shares his or her coaching or consulting experiences with a supervisor. This creates a dialogue that encourages reflection and learning for the benefit of the coach or consultant and their clients.

"The important thing is not to go even faster, but to find the right direction" Stephen R. Covey

Supervision: An essential lever for support professionals

In the support professions - coaches, consultants, psychologists or therapists - supervision is much more than an ethical obligation. It's a space dedicated to reflection, professional development and continuous improvement.

At If, Conseil & Coaching, we offer supervision tailored to your needs, to enable you to overcome your challenges, refine your practice and move forward with confidence in your profession.

Why is supervision essential?

Supervision is a key process for :

Gain distance from your practice: identify sticking points, clarify complex situations and reinforce your professional posture.
Develop your skills: enrich your tools, refine your approach and make continuous progress.
Respecting deontology and ethics: guaranteeing professional practice aligned with the values and principles of the profession.
Reinforce your neutrality: Manage transfers and counter-transfers to maintain a relationship of trust with your customers.

Didactic, deontological and ethical, supervision is an approach that enables coaches and consultants to develop, overcome certain difficulties and move forward with confidence in their practice.

The supervisor's role

The supervisor plays a key role in supporting coaches and consultants. His/her main missions include :

Develop your skills: help you refine your tools, methods and professional posture.
Create a space for dialogue and reflection: Encourage open, constructive dialogue around your experiences, while identifying the personal resonances that could influence your practice.
Guaranteeing ethics and deontology: supporting you in aligning your practices with professional and deontological standards.

The supervisor is not only a guide, but also a thinking partner who helps you move forward with serenity and professionalism.

Types of supervision

There are two formats for supervision.

Individual supervision

Personalized support, face-to-face or remotely, to explore your specific issues, refine your practice and work in depth on your professional challenges.

Group supervision

A group of professionals meet with a supervisor to share their experiences, challenges and questions. This format promotes :

Collective intelligence, with enriching exchanges between peers.
Sharing experiences, to learn from the successes and difficulties of others.
A caring environment, conducive to listening and non-judgment.

EMCC: An international benchmark for coach and mentor supervision

The European Mentoring and Coaching Council ( EMCC ) is an internationally recognized organization that promotes the ethical and professional practice of coaching, mentoring and supervision.

Why is this important?

The EMCC offers a structuring framework and invaluable tools, such as :
- A skills reference framework.
- A Global Code of Ethics.
- A Declaration on Diversity and Inclusion.
It recommends a suitable supervision schedule: 4 hours per year for an individual or 1 hour for 35 hours of practice, to guarantee quality support.

At If, Conseil & Coaching, our supervisors are members of the EMCC and adhere to its standards, offering you a secure and professional framework.
