Well I wonder if things are getting a bit mixed up here - there is a
danger of calling 'supervision' what might be best called something else.
So it might be worth distinguishing between
supervision
leadership
negotiation and sponsorship (of the work to be done)
management (and accountability for resource use and so on)
consultation
mentorship
peer support
and then thinking through how each might be met ina a particular context
of practice.
I'm not sure if the issues for supervision of community psychological
practice are fundamentally diferent from any other - they should deal with
things like task definition, task content and process, decision making,
ethics, power relations, own positionining/self/reflexion and so on.
