De-Coding Ethics Part 1
Ethics scenario 1: when a supervisee becomes a close personal friend — multiple relationships, boundaries, and documentation.
Scenario 1: a supervisee becomes a close personal friend, and now you're also responsible for evaluating their performance. Sherley walks through the four-step response — identify the risk to your judgment and the supervisee's ability to disagree, communicate the concern clearly, set boundaries (limit social contact, change feedback delivery, involve another supervisor), and document — and cites possible applicable codes 1.11 Multiple Relationships, 1.13 Coercive and Exploitative Relationships, and 4.04 Accountability in Supervision. Press play for the scenario in full.
