Education of supervision and coaching, an interesting matter
2019: Volume 3: Isseu 1 ■ Agnes Turner & Reijer Jan van ’t Hul After the ANSE board was elected during the General Assembly in Budapest in October 2018, we had to divide tasks into our portfolio. We took a whole day in January to do this and Agnes put her name immediately at this task but Reijer Jan didn’t feel any challenge to write or to publish articles. Reijer Jan checked what tasks he really would like to do, but also posted his name to tasks with not so many names on it. And now one of his main tasks is the ANSE-journal. In this case it is the same as it is with education, you have to step out of your comfort zone, to learn something, and that is what Reijer Jan did and we decided to work for ANSE journal in a team and continue this successfully! In the first place we want to thank Barbara Baumann for all the efforts that she made, starting the ANSE-journal from scratch and now there is a group of national editors, a nice-looking Journal and the goal to publish ANSE-journal twice a year. Also, the topics for the next four editions are set, so it was not that hard to take over this task until now. Barbara, you put the standards high and we will do what we can do to keep this Journal alive, thank you very much. Within the last General Assembly of ANSE the topics quality and education were on the top of the list. Delegates and presidents for the member countries stated that these are all over Europe main issues within the national organization. The contains revising quality standards in educational programs for Supervision and Coaching but also learning about and implementing new and broader approaches of supervisory skills and competences in educational programs and lifelong learning settings such as intervision groups or conference. Talking about conference, in line with the topic education the first conference on Teaching Supervision and Coaching took place in Frankfurt in November 2018. In this edition of the ANSE-journal you can find an article about reflection on the first ANSE conference about Teaching Supervision and Coaching written by Ineke Riezebos. It was an inspiring conference and we set the goal to organize a conference again in spring 2022. The other articles are from Switzerland, The Netherlands, Ukraine, Hungary, Latvia, Estonia and this provides a nice map of how supervision and coaching is taught in Europe. We get a great overview on the differences and the similarities in the programs throughout Europe and the diversity is also visible in the different points of view, from supervision, coaching, intervision and meta-supervision. Great thanks go again to Gerian Dijkhuizen for writing the ANSE column – this time about the practices of lifelong learning. Behalf of the ANSE board and all national editors we wish you a joyful and fruitful time reading the journal. ■
GratisPolitics and social responsibility: effect and influence in and through supervision / coaching
2018: Volume 2: Isseu 1 ■ Barbara Baumann This is the topic of the 2nd ANSE Journal. After the first topic “Quality”, to immediately draw attention to the political and social responsibility of supervision - too detached? We think and hope that the articles in this issue will stimulate reflection on one’s own attitude to the subject, collegial exchange and discussion in many places with different people. “Talking is working on the meaning of situations; understanding is grasping a situation in its meaning.” This aphorism by the philosopher Hermann Schmitz was certainly not coined with a view to supervision and coaching and yet he describes in a focused way what happens in the supervisory process. The issues, cases, questions and concerns that supervisors bring forward are given meaning through speach and the supervisory process is about understanding and grasping their significance. This significance does not only refer to the person of the supervisee, but also to the professional role, the organisation in which she or he works and not infrequently the social significance also becomes visible. And vice versa. Social and political developments influence organisations and the people who work there. To keep an eye on these interactions, to understand them in their dynamics and to develop constructive possibilities for action and behaviour is always the task and goal of supervisory processes. Therefore, supervisors are repeatedly called upon to deal with political and social changes. Economization, digitalization, globalization, migration - just four keywords that currently shape many socio-political discourses that have a massive influence on the world of labor and on people. These are also topics supervisors have to deal with reflexively, on which they have to develop an attitude. It is not coincidental that the first two articles in this issue are lectures. Jubilees, celebrations, conferences are always occasions to ascertain fundamental attitudes. Both Sijtze de Roos’ speech on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Croatian Supervision Association and Monique Castillo’s lecture, which was written on the occasion of an anniversary in Mexico but was also held once again this year at a conference of the French Supervision Association, address fundamental questions of orientation and attitude. The health sector today is certainly an area of many changes, which reflect social and socio-political change processes and in which political and social responsibility must be discussed and assumed. The article by Kristel Kotkas underlines the importance of supervision in this area, taking Estonia as an example. But how do individual supervisors position themselves on the topic of this issue? The interview conducted by Ineke Riezebos with Seyda Buurman Kutsal gives an example and the questions of the interview can be understood as a model to interview oneself and collegially discuss political and social responsibility and to enter into a collegial dialogue. The aim of the ANSE Journal is to make the diversity and significance of supervision in Europe visible. For this reason, we have added a new category to the journal. In each issue we now want to introduce a supervisor from somewhere in Europe. Gerian Dijkhuizen introduces a German colleague, Per Wolfrum from Berlin. Both worked together for a long time in an ANSE International Intervision Group. We hope that this second issue of the ANSE Journal will give readers a lot of pleasure, reading and discussing with colleagues, supervisors, clients and other in many different places. ■
GratisThe online ANSE Journal of Supervision and Coaching: Introduction to the pilot
2017: Volume 1: Isseu 1 One of the major objectives of ANSE is to promote and, wherever possible, facilitate cross border contacts. Actually, it is our core business, because, quite like in supervision or coaching, communication is the alpha and omega of the ANSE community. It is, so to speak, our natural habitat. ■ Sijtze de Roos Central to our mission is – to quote from our Policy Plan – ‘the cross border exchange of information on professional developments between our National Organisations, training institutes and sister organisations, as well as the cross border exchange of professional knowledge and experience between practitioners.’ Obviously, communication and exchange are prerequisite to freely share information on supervision, coaching and consultancy, and – not to forget – to the (further) development and implementation of (European) quality standards. There is so much to share! In all our countries, there is a wealth of experience and theoretical reflection. But most of it never crosses the borders of the country - or at best the language area - of its origin. For sure, live experience may be exchanged in ANSE International Intervision Groups, during conferences and at Summer Universities. True; ‘ANSE English’ in the meantime serves as our lingua franca during our live meetings. But theories, books, articles, master theses or scientific research findings are quite another matter. We still have to overcome a big language gap on paper or smart screen. Too much of this richness is inaccessible to too many of our colleagues. Latvian colleagues, for example, have no access to studies published in Hungary and the other way round, and German supervision scholars hardly ever see, let alone understand, Dutch publications and vice versa. This unfortunate state of reciprocal linguistic exclusion goes all the way from Romania to Finland. But it does not need to be like that. And that is exactly why we hereby launch the first issue of the ANSE Journal, which I am happy to present to you on behalf of the ANSE Board. This one is a pilot, but there surely will follow more. We are planning to publish two issues each year. I am very grateful for the work that board member Barbara Baumann over the last two years put into this, to Eric Vullers of Kloosterhof Publications who made it all possible, and of course to the authors and national editors. Let’s go on this way, and make our often hidden wealth accessible to all of us. ■
