An international study of the www.kabloomgroup.com reveals that only 15% of the European coaches has a supervisor.
Coach supervision is a relative new profession in Belgium because the (team) coaching profession is not that old itself. A qualitative offer of good supervisors is hard to find unless we find our way through our own coach training institutes or via a professional supervision body such as www.associationofcoachsupervisors.com.
Besides this, there are may be a lot of limiting beliefs and misunderstanding about "SUPERvision". One might associate this word with assessment or certification procedures.
We put some thought provoking hypotheses on paper and invite you to reflect what could be applicable to those who do not choose to be supervised yet:
What would be your reason for NOT chosing supervision?

As coach we like to invite our clients …
… to make conscious choices and keep on progressing;
… to measure their progress and results ;
… to build on their network to find support in their change process;
… to look through the lens of sustainable growth;
…
… and yet ...
... we don't make time enough time to critically review our work and to discover our hidden patterns and blind spots that influence the quality of our work with clients?
How will we explain this to our clients?
I like to read your comments on this!
If you know any research on the reasons why coaches postpone coach supervision, I'd be glad to read this as well.
