"North America has been one of the slowest geographies to develop Coaching Supervision, but the Editors and Authors of this book have done an amazing job in developing coach supervision across the Americas north and south. The book offers a wide range of experience and practical advice to coach supervisors and supervisees that we can all benefit from."Professor Peter Hawkins, Global thought leader; best-selling author on coaching, supervision, and systemic team coaching"As one of the very early voices of coaching supervision in the Americas, I am excited to see this thorough and rich exploration of the present and future of this important contribution to professional coaching. The book offers clear evidence that the once resisted idea of coaching supervision is now melting away. Across all the issues explored here, the center point of supervision shines brightly – deep and resonant presence and relationships informed by intense and ongoing curiosity."Samuel P Magill Sr, Co-director and founder, Coaching Supervision Academy – North America"A book title that aptly reflects what the reader can expect. An exciting new text in Coaching Supervision for a growing market. The vastness of the Americas is captured by honouring the diversity of culture that deserves the wider scope given to the definition of supervision. Refreshing new authors in the field bring together sensitivity, knowledge and practical offerings in illustrating why supervision makes sense … and it doesn’t end there with the promise of more to come with ideas for future research topics that are destined to expand the knowledge base promoting the case for supervision. A wonderfully crafted contribution for the expansion of supervision practice in the Americas."Lise Lewis, EMCC Past President; EMCC International Special Ambassador; Founder of Bluesky International"In this book the editorial team have undertaken a project to explore and extend the discussion of coaching supervision in the Americas - a project that I know is close to their hearts. As a collection, it is a welcome addition to the coaching supervision literature, in particular for its diversity of voices and its intent to celebrate that diversity in the interests of developing the discipline."Dr Peter Jackson, Co-director, International Centre for Coaching & Mentoring Studies, Oxford Brookes Business School"This book opens a window into the bigger conversations in coaching supervision. It amply demonstrates the potency of this growing practice. While ‘Coaching Supervision: Voices from the Americas’ is rooted in a particular context, it speaks vividly to the global community of coaches, mentors and supervisors. There are new and refreshing voices in these chapters, voices that skillfully address the real-world reflections that occur every day in supervision: reflections on complexity, cultural context, collective trauma, spirituality, systemic thinking and coach education. Read this book for new insights into well-established supervision models and tools, but also for understanding how coaching supervision embraces contemporary professional and political discourses."Edna Murdoch, Director, Coaching Supervision Academy"This rich and panoramic view of practice, research and education by a dedicated group of coaching supervisors offers a very timely and valuable insight into the results of comprehensive work undertaken by the ACSN to bring this practice to life in the Americas. The chapters take account of the complexities of a diverse cultural milieu and will inform and inspire readers from both within our field and the wider community that supervisors wish to serve."Fiona Adamson, Co-founder of Coaching Supervision Academy; co-author of Mindfulness-Based Relational Supervision, Mutual Transformational Learning"In parallel to the fields and practices of coaching and coaching supervision, this book offers—with great generosity of heart and wisdom—ways forward to a better future. While coaching supervision in the Americas is in a nascent state compared to the UK and Europe, we are clearly seeing differences (and similarities) that can inform the evolution of this field where art and science combine. This collection of ideas and practices is an important contribution to the coaching supervision space."Kathleen Stinnett, MCC & certified coaching supervisor; author of The Extraordinary Coach book
