Title: Opening the Year Resourced and Resilient
Summary: The practice of coach supervision and holding space for reflection, meaning making and learning is a vital support for coaches. It is also vital for us, as coach supervisors, to ensure we are fit for purpose by prioritizing our own resilience and resourcefulness as we head into practice. January’s session will consider Relational Spaces to Cultivate Resilience Resourcing (also a chapter in the newly released Coaching Supervision: Voices from the Americas) with a focus on the 7 Core Energy Sources of Resilience – all held by and with compassion. Through an interactive session of pedagogy, play and discussion, we will celebrate coming together and kicking off 2023 in the community.

This interactive session looked at the functions of Coaching SuperVision and invite you to reflect on what would coaching supervision look like and feel like if we allowed supervisees to arrive intact at their own transformation later better than arriving early with a stack of needed repairs and a harness?[1] If our overall wish is to increase the acceptance of coaching supervision as a formative, normative, and restorative opportunity for coaches and to be in service of our profession, what needs to shift in our approach to coaching supervision to distinguish it from therapeutic and counseling supervision? (adapted from Nancy Kline: More Time to Think).

Supervision and Movement Ecology with Okokon Udo, Ph.D.
The intersection of coaching/ coaching supervision and Movement Ecology
Movement ecology is a broad-based body of work and a collection of change models wrapped up in one. It offers a roadmap that can help supervisors and coaches to locate themselves in their cultural story, understand where to begin and how to engage their diversity in order to deliver value for all clients.
Dr. Udo’s presentation will introduce Movement Ecology, focus on the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) space within the context of our ever-so-complex individual and communal intersecting identities, referred to as intersectionality. It will unfold the topic, provoke reflection and integration, challenge cultural imperialism and provide developmental resources regardless of where one is on the DEIB journey.
Dr. Udo will also be one of our keynote speakers at our upcoming conference at the end of April. For more information on Dr. Okokon Udo, please click on his website: Okokon Udo — LeaderWise
