Developmental Supervision

Developmental supervision is a supportive process aimed at enhancing an individual's skills and professional growth. It involves regular discussions between a supervisor and an employee, focusing on feedback, guidance, and goal setting. The supervisor helps identify strengths and areas for improvement, fostering a collaborative environment where the employee can develop competencies over time. Unlike traditional supervision, which may focus mainly on performance evaluation, developmental supervision emphasizes learning, mentorship, and building a professional foundation to help individuals reach their full potential in their roles.
