Person-Centered Supervision

Many of us know and understand the importance of being person-centered with the people we support. However, being person-centered should not begin and end with the lives of those we assist. This new module for leadership staff will help your organization to become a truly person-centered company. 

Watch this trailer to learn more:

Person-centered supervision puts your team members at the center of the conversation. This approach builds a foundation of shared trust, respect, and perspective-taking and supports an environment of performance achievement and well-being.

When team members know that you and the organization care about them and their development, they will want to remain a part of that organization. This module provides leaders with an opportunity to get to know your team members as people, not just employees.

Providers that use this approach report: Strengthened service quality and person-centered service delivery practices. More engaged team members. More productive team members working in line with strategic objectives. Reduced staffing costs in relation to turnover and personal leave.

This module features presentations from Gina Brelesky, Nancy Shea, and MaryBeth Witkop.
