Executive Leader Seminar on Coaching Supervision
October 22-24, Traverse City, Michigan

PHI Michigan is pleased to open its 3-day Executive Leader Seminar on Coaching Supervision and Leadership to organizations across the country. This seminar is designed for CEOs, COOs, Managers, and other Executive Leaders in all long-term care organizations to learn more about the PHI coaching supervision program and how it can enhance the implementation of a person-directed caregiving culture.

PHI’s Coaching Approach to Supervision training offers a unique approach to ending the revolving door of high staff turnover. Through skill-based training, long-term care supervisors learn to support direct-care staff while also holding them accountable. By building constructive, positive relationships, managers show their respect for staff while also helping them become better communicators and stronger problem solvers capable of delivering quality care.

Overall coaching supervision has been shown to:

• Create a culture of shared commitment to communication and problem solving.
• Improve job performance of direct-care staff and quality of care for consumers.
• Reduce the number of “fires” that managers have to put out each day.
• Reduce the cycle of turnover and create a more stable workforce.

Since we trained our supervisors in coaching supervision, people think differently. There is more effort to understand the root cause of a performance problem, and supervisors work with direct caregivers to make plans to address problems when they arise.

This seminar allows executive leaders to experience the 2-day Coaching Approach to Supervision and time to think and plan how to bring the approach to their organization.
