contemporary theory and research, which is strongly contextualized
to child and family social work. It draws directly from analysis of
in-depth interviews with experienced and post graduate qualified
supervisors and supervisees about 'what works' in supervision.

work supervision offering hope, inspiration and a contemporary
model of supervisory practice.
