Supervision has a place in both organizations and with individuals. This article explores the current reshaping of the field, especially with regard to the interface between organizational consulting and supervision. Supervision is considered as a metatheoretical activity; this leaves space for different approaches, which are differentiated from various models of supervision. Four approaches to supervision are described, ranging from the contractual model of supervision in transactional analysis to more analytic models.
