articles on the topic of difficult situations in supervision. Müller? detected in
a data collection in the geriatric field in Austria, Germany and Switzerland that
only one third of the sample found Supervision highly useful and only one third
pointed out that their supervisors were highly competent. Gottfried”! found in a
Europe-wide multicentre Study in the field of Supervision in psychiatric clinics
that more than 20% of the sample reported critical and negative experiences
in supervision. The last, broadly discussed paper was presented by Schmeruly
et al.”on negative effects of Coaching.
Inan analysis of the two leading German periodicals on supervision, the “OSC
journal” (Organisationsberatung, Supervision, Coaching) and “supervision
Mensch Arbeit Organisation” from the years 2000-2009 Kero”? found out
that only 4% (25 in total) of all the articles mentioned the subject of risks or
side effects of supervision. This literature analysis was the first research work
the students of the Supervision course of the Danube University conducted.
The themes in the articles were abuse and misapplication of supervision,
transgression of the limits and exploitation of supervisees, the supervisors’
blind spots, missing reflection and incompetence and corruptibility of the
supervisor. The main reason for the unwanted effects seems to be missing
clearness about the diagnosis, the aims and the rules of the process.
