ABSTRACT
Advances in neuroscience research and practice have provided valuable information for leaders and supervisors on how to lead teams and engage supervisees in the feedback process, so that the brain is open to hearing. An important part of supervision is ensuring that supervisees are engaging self-care regularly. Supervision needs to be a place where connections in the supervisory relationship are positive and meaningful. It is important to make supervision conversations intentional, so the supervisee sees the value in engaging in the process. Supervision is one of the most brain friendly activities in the workplace, as it creates a space for stillness, deep listening and a positive relational experience. The more the supervisors show their supervisees their trust and belief, the more the supervisee will get a sense of feeling appreciated and valued.
