From Concept to Action

He is an acknowledged leader in translating complex psychological concepts into effective, actionable management tools for the layman.He advises and trains the UK’s growing ranks of executive coaches and workplace counsellors in supervision through the Centre for Supervision Training which he leads, based in the West Country.

His forte is in wellbeing related issues from three perspectives – Managing people and teams in a coaching environment, identifying and resolving people issues and understanding how organisational values impact and can be managed. His course 'Personal Power at Work - looking after the professional self' is one good example.

Coaching Supervision and Professional Supervision (also called 'clinical' supervision) in workplace contexts forms the majority of his work. In particular with Her Majesty's Prison Service his two-day course 'Becoming an Effective Supervisor ' is very popular and is acknowledged as setting a high standard. This is supplemented by some Prisons with 'Being an Effective Supervisee' which addresses the oft overlooked issue of helping supervisees learn how to use supervision to its best advantage.
