We Must Be More than Supervisors... We Must Be Leaders

We’re pleased to share a new conference offerered by Western Psychiatric Institute & Clinic and Community Care Behavioral Health.

SUPERVISION IN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

We Must Be More Than Supervisors...
We Must Be Leaders
Friday, March 21
Sheraton Station Square, Pittsburgh

Supervision is crucial for professional development. It is essential to examine why supervisors can and must be effective leaders who create an alliance between themselves and their staff. The supervisor and staff must work together in support of the purpose, principles, and mission of their agency to improve services for their clients. During the keynote, Mike Morrison, PhD, the founder of a leadership consulting firm, will address the art and science of personal leadership – a powerful framework for bringing our best self and the best self in others to the workplace.  There will also be workshops focusing on topics for leaders/supervisors including development of a supervisory model, balancing clinical and administrative supervision, and supervision needs for peer and recovery specialists.  Participants should leave the conference with a greater understanding of the importance of providing and receiving effective supervision.
