This book locates 101 practical coaching supervision techniques in their theoretical context. It is organised into ten chapters, each reflecting a different philosophical basis for the coaching supervision work: Existential, Gestalt, Person Centred, Positive Psychology, Psychodynamic, Solution Focused, Systemic, Thinking Environment, Transpersonal and finally an Eclectic chapter.

With contributions and insights from leaders in the field, this book outlines the different philosophies and their principles and explains their application in practice. The book will help readers determine which technique to use and when, as well as offering a step-by-step guide to implementing or adapting it for their own work. With a breadth of techniques, the book will help all supervisors broaden their repertoire and ultimately become a better practitioner.

Accessible and practical, this book is a valuable resource for experienced and novice supervisors as well as their supervisees. It will inspire them to keep their supervision and coaching practices both current and fresh, offering a diverse range of techniques to experiment with.

Reviews

"... 101 Coaching Supervision Techniques, Approaches, Enquiries and Experiments is written for a primary audience of coaching supervisors, new and experienced. Lucas suggests that coaches may also benefit from the book, in developing their independent reflective practice. With ten philosophies and 101 approaches and techniques, Lucas' book is a substantial addition to the existing publications in the field of coaching supervision. Its style, somewhere between a book and toolkit, will appeal to a wide audience in search of coaching supervision practices grounded in their own philosophical approaches."
