Gary works online and offers developmental supervision – supervision with a developmental approach.
In today’s world we grapple with VUCA + A : volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity + acceleration. We can experience this as stress, disruption & overwhelm and loose our sense of agency.

Developmental supervision supports us by offering a conversational space to explore our work, projects and aspirations away from the coal-face and it works like this:

1. The supervisee shares their workplace goals or aspirations. These become the basis of meetings.
2. The focus of the meeting is always driven by the supervisee, who may refine or change the goals.
3. Monthly ‘take away’ reflective thinking tools are offered as a supportive, developmental resource.

“ Research shows the single biggest cause of work burnout is not work overload, but working too long without experiencing our own personal development” – ‘An Everyone Culture’ – Keegan and Lahey.
