SUMMARY:Supervision Connection: Research and Practice
DESCRIPTION:<< Back to LIGHT Events\n					\n	 \n\n	Supervision Connection: Research and Practice\n\n			March 16\n	 @\n12:00 pm\n	 –\n1:00 pm\n	\nDo you supervise others as part of your ministry? What makes for a “good” supervisee/supervisor relationship? How does this component affect formation for ministry? Rev. Jules Taylor shares their research on the landscape of supervision practices\, focusing especially on supervision with ministerial interns. Across multiple traditions\, ministerial formation includes a supervised ministry (i.e. internship) component\, and the relationship between supervisee and supervisor cannot be overlooked as a component to learning. This workshop shows what all supervisors can learn by thinking about formation and education as part of the work of supervision. The session will include both discussion and an opportunity for internship supervisors to participate in a research study. \n								\n									register on populi\n					\n																																 \n\nRev.

SUMMARY:May UU Spiritual Direction Book Discussion
