Supervising Through the Storm

Self-Paced Digital Course
The supervisor is the single most important lever for protecting a trauma-exposed team, and in turn protecting the mission.

The research is striking - manger-level interventions for trauma-exposed teams produce some of the highest measurable returns of any workforce wellbeing investment, consistently outperforming individual resilience training by a wide margin. And yet most supervisors in helping organizations receive no specific preparation for this dimension of their role.

Supervising Through the Storm closes that gap. It covers how to recognize vicarious trauma and moral injury in direct reports, how the supervisor’s own exposure risk operates differently, how to structure supervision to include protective elements, how to have the conversations that need to happen, and how to make the policy case upward when leadership isn’t yet on board.

INVESTMENT

Honor system sliding scale: $10 - $1,000*
True program cost: ~$500

*We know many helping professions don’t have much to spare. We also know that some supervisors will foot this bill (instead of their organization). We could offer discounted or free slots, available by application, but this puts more work on those already overwhelmed. So, against all advice, we’re letting you name your price, and widening the scale way beyond the typical sliding system. This program is worth far more than $10, but if that is what you can manage, we humbly accept it. This program is also not worth $1,000, but if you can manage it, we are grateful, as this is what allows for others less privileged to be able to also access it.
