Abstract

The seven principles of a ‘Coach Supervision Mindset’ were developed in 2016 when designing supervision training for internal coaches. The intention was to supplement existing supervisor competency-based models. Bluckert’s (2006) seven principles of a coaching mindset were used as a framework, extending each principle for coach supervision. Grounded in practice, the Coach Supervisor Mindset principles received external validation, challenge and refinement through two conference presentations. Subsequently an action research project was sponsored by the Association for Coaching, involving 48 members. This paper captures the themes arising from this process.
