What is Peer Supervision?

Peer supervision is a recognised professional development intervention. As working environments become more pressurised, health care managers recognise the need for peer supervision specifically to deal with challenges within their management role. Peer supervision is an arrangement where three or more professionals share the responsibility for providing each other's supervision within the group context. Peer supervisors ask questions to promote critical self-reflection in the supervisee. When managers engage in peer supervision, they present dilemmas they're struggling with and work with their peers to gain perspective and insight.
