Lifting The Lid - Episode 10 - The one where we explore taking business related questions to supervision

Clare and Steve explore the topic of whether it is ok to bring commercial or business related questions to supervision. As a coach, can I talk about the balance of my work or about my business set up in supervision? Can I discuss the challenge of turning my coaching into a profitable business, or talk about my marketing with my supervisor? Should I bring to supervision choices that I make to win business, even if I know that they might not be entirely ethical? Where is the boundary when it comes to business related matters for a coach? Is it different in group supervision? What is supervision and what might be mentoring or coaching? Is it different if you work internally as a coach? Clare and Steve swap perspectives and bring examples as always in a thought provoking session.
