Managerial Supervision in the Human Services
January 27, 2018 - 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET
This mini-course, offered over two days, will focus on three or four key skills in the area of Managerial Supervision in the Human Services.
Day 1 begins with an introduction to Managerial Supervision and the differences between managerial supervision and clinical supervision. We also focus on the tensions between these two work modalities and the conflicts they can create. Issues of power, fatefulness, working to standard, and evaluation are considered as well. Supervisory role playing in triads, with a supervisor, a direct report, and an observer will be used.
In the afternoon of Day 1, the focus will be on Supervision for Retention, especially stressing areas, such as child protective services, where the supervisor and the supervisee are involved in fateful decision making but are not geographically proximate.
Day 2 will stress the effective Supervisory meeting, both dyadic and group based. The second day concludes with a discussion of decision making within the supervisory context.Registration for this course is closed. Visit the CE Course Catalog for more offerings.

Written and performed by Becca Blackwell
Directed by and developed with Ellie Heyman"The audience emerged from the theater with a greater awareness of a sociocultural transformation underway… from confusion to denial, to reconciliation to who-the-****-cares-let-the- love-in…" (Bomb Magazine)
Part classic standup comedy special, part confessional memoir, and part performance art, They, Themself and Schmerm is Becca Blackwell's disturbingly hilarious personal tale detailing the tragicomic transitions in life, family, sex, and gender while asking what it means to be truly authentic. A New York-based trans actor, performer, and writer, Becca exists between genders and works collaboratively with playwrights and directors to expand our sense of personhood and the body through performance.
Contains adult language and frank discussion of gender and sexuality.
This performance is part of UMS's No Safety Net theater festival - a three-week look at works of theater that embrace contemporary social issues. Details available at ums.org/NoSafetyNet.
