Processes and Projects in the Area
of Supervision und Coaching
Background
Mission
Supervision and coaching are scientifically-based, practical
concepts for people- and organisation-focussed consulting
activities in working life. Individuals, groups, teams and
organisational or corporate units can use these concepts to
understand complex challenges and to respond appropriately
to them. Supervision and coaching can assist in clarifying
workplace practices (reflection), acquiring the competencies
currently needed (know-how), and testing new roles and
structures in the working world (practice transfer).¹
The mission of the DGSv – Deutsche Gesellschaft für Super­
vision e.V. (German Society for Supervision) is, among other
things, to promote “the activities of consulting, research and
education in the workplace and professional environment on
the basis of supervision and associated or complementary
reflective forms of consulting”.
Aim
Structures
“Ultimately the role of developing and promoting the scientifically-based discourse on consulting activities is also to improve
the social positioning of supervisors and coaches, especially
from the point of view of professional policy. Also in the public
image they must be recognised as responsible, ethical and clearly
positioned partners of social development”.²
After the DGSv had been founded in 1989, the Managing
Board established a Science and Research Committee for the
first time in 1994.
From 2002 onwards the initiatives in the area of science and
research have been formally integrated into the Board’s duties,
and the former Committee has ceased to exist.
The management of all activities, topics and projects in the area
of science and research is the responsibility of the Chief
Executive/Executive Chairperson.

Since 2002 the DGSv has supported a total of 13 young
scholars during their doctorate. This support included a
thematic component (consulting, networking, participation
in seminars, discourse) and a financial component (subsidy
for printing costs).
The aim of the project is to provide support for scholarly debate
with consulting professionals in the working world. The support
provided is not a scholarship.
