Completing our first book, Best Practice in Professional Supervision, was an
exciting achievement for us. To have the opportunity to follow with this
volume has allowed us to build on those original ideas, and to further
explore the developments, challenges and opportunities which continue
to be presented to those engaged in supervision practice in the health and
social service sector.
The five years since we published the first volume have, as we have
already noted, seen a continued interest in, and focus upon, supervision.
Conversations and debates have become increasingly global and
differences and similarities between professions and across continents
have been illuminated. In this volume we have addressed the impact of
political and social change on health and social service practice and the
role which supervision can play to support (and challenge) practitioners
who work at those interfaces.
The tension between supervision conceptualised as a reflective
learning process and as a vehicle for surveillance remains in focus in
many contexts (Chapter 1). Practitioners continue to struggle to meet
organisational targets and growing workloads. In this climate, supervisors
and supervisees (practitioners and managers (Chapter 10), find it
difficult to secure supervision as a place for reflection and replenishment
(Chapter 4). However a proliferation of high level professional policy
guidance regarding the importance of reflection in professional practice
suggests a significant shift.
A major challenge facing supervision is its transferability across
cultures, nations and regions (Chapter 2). Increasingly in many contexts,
particularly in Australasia and Canada, Indigenous practitioners are
developing models of supervision to meet their particular needs. This
brings exciting and fresh ideas to the theory and practice of supervision
in an increasingly diverse world.
The focus from profession led clinical work to collaborative practice
involving multidisciplinary teams and service users working together has
given rise to greater exchange and interaction between the professions.
This interplay has run in parallel to the increasing popularity of
interprofessional supervision (Chapter 8). Supervision practice as a
consequence is subject to greater scrutiny, challenge and critique as
different traditions and the requirements of different professions come
