Clare and Steve explore what they mean when they refer to the system as it might show up in coaching and supervision.

They explore the hidden dynamic and architecture of relationships, not just between people but between individuals and abstract constructs such as the future. They discuss nested systems, family systems, professional and organisational systems and how to bring awareness to the unconscious - whether it be using a tabletop map with buttons, cups or plectrums, or whether physically standing in relationship to those people and abstract entities. In supervision we have the opportunity to be vulnerable and explore what might be happening in a way that goes beyond the tangible coach client matters like the contract, the goal, the work, the plan or the sharing of ‘how tos’. The start of a deep dive into a crucial part of supervision and being a truly self aware coach.
