The art of balancing : About supervision with professionals and about the supervisor as a security creator and a challenger (English)
Abstract [en]

This master´s thesis has the form of a scientific essay. Its purpose is to explore how supervisors, in supervising professionals, balance between creating security and building relationship as opposed to challenging participants by introducing unexpected elements. The purpose is also to investigate whether philosophical theories can constitute impulses and unexpected elements for reflection on the supervisor's balancing act. The essay raises the question whether philosophical theories in the same manner can constitute impulses and unexpected elements in reflection on theories and practice in supervision. Experiences and conversations constitute the empirical material of the study. Certain themes have crystallized on those basis. These themes are discussed in relation to theories in supervision and to philosophical theories. The essay has highlighted the importance of the practical knowledge that supervisors use in the balancing act. The body and its signals and memory seems to play an important role for the interpersonal contact, as well as for the conversation and for the listening. The essay also shows that the supervisor's balancing act means more complexity than the balance between security and challenge.

Abstract [sv]

Denna masteruppsats har formen av en vetenskaplig essä. Dess syfte är att utforska hur handledare i handledning med yrkesverksamma balanserar mellan att skapa trygghet och bygga och behålla relation i motsats till att utmana deltagarna genom att introducera främmande moment. Syftet är även att undersöka om filosofiska teorier kan utgöra impulser och främmande moment för reflektion över handledares balansakt i handledning och i reflektion över teorier och praktik inom handledning. Gestaltningar och samtal utgör undersökningens empiriska material och utifrån dessa har teman utkristalliserats. Dessa teman diskuteras i relation till teorier inom handledning och i relation till filosofiska tänkare. Undersökningen har synliggjort betydelsen av den praktiska kunskap som handledare använder i balansakten, där kroppen och dess signaler spelar en viktig roll för såväl mötet, som samtalet, lyssnandet och den gemensamma reflektionen. Utforskningen visar också att handledares balansakt innehåller fler utmaningar och är mer komplex än balansen mellan trygghet och utmaning.
