Session

New research on reflective practice in small group virtual coaching supervision will be shared that illuminates the possibilities for personal and professional development through experiential and transformative learning. This includes the first public presentation of a model for learning and development culminating from the research. Participants’ input and responses to the model will be welcomed. The participative webinar will provide space for participants to explore their own small group practices.

This is a session that combines the introduction to the reflective practice model, with time to reflect with colleagues. The learning outcomes for the session will come from the contrast and comparisons of your own practices with those of the research groups.

• Expanding one’s thinking about how to guide reflective practice virtually
• Understanding the elements of reflective practice
• Understanding the additional elements present and possible in small groups
• Cultivate curiosities about expanded possibilities for your own reflective practices and for your clients and students.
