Why Coaching Supervision and CPD is Important for Internal Coaches

Notion's research into sustaining a pool of Internal Coaches that deliver an RoI evidences that the follow-up elements to coach training are often the most critical. This is where it becomes possible to really leverage the original investment or unfortunately, see it wither away. CPD and Supervision is therefore an important part of a longer term commitment to develop the performance and proactive culture within your internal coaches.
We strongly encourage our clients to ensure the continuing professional development of their qualified coaches. Specifically to:
Provide your recently trained coaches with quality supervision and coaching CPD to ensure that:
- They are supported to deliver ever higher standards of internal coaching
- They continue to develop and enhance their coaching skills
- You as an organisation are demonstrating due diligence in the safekeeping of both the coaches and coachees
- Coaching standards and professional ethics are being observed
- Best practice is being shared
- Coach wellbeing is effectively and safely managed
- You gain the maximum leverage from the investment you have already made
At Notion, we are privileged to have probably the most experienced Supervision team in the world.



Between them they have supervised over 800 coaches, created postgraduate supervision programmes for the ILM, authored many specialist books on Supervision and Reflective Practice as well as having tens of thousands of hours of Executive Coaching experience to share. They understand what it takes to be successful as a coach and to deliver great value to clients. As such, during our programmes, they share not just the theoretical practice but also recount any number of real life illustrations with the programme participants. This brings the programme to life and adds significant extra value.
The end result will be motivated, engaged, higher performing Internal Coaches who can deliver a measurable return on investment for your organisation.
We design annual programmes for your coaches - contact us to discover some of the development options that can be incorporated into your programme.
I really enjoyed the programme, especially the supervision session and thought it was the best I had been to! I believe Notion have raised the bar on our thinking and approach to coaching supervision in Sainsbury’s. As one of the original coaches from the first cohort I feel refreshed and inspired by this learning experience.

Sue is clearly a very knowledgeable and experienced coaching supervisor and I feel that I have learned a great deal about myself and my coaching through these sessions. Sue’s questions are appropriately challenging and I often find myself arriving at unexpected insights which have a significant positive impact on the quality of my coaching - she has also recommended some excellent resources on specific topics."
Sarah Dowling, UCL Internal CoachI walked away from today's supervision session feeling able to approach my coaching sessions with new energy!
It was great to share others experiences and learn how they would approach situations with a different lens, get a few new models that can be used and use it is a reminder to keep me on my toes!
