Amazon.com description: Product Description: This is a must-read for all speech-language pathology supervisors, whether in practice, returning to the workplace, or seeking to advance their abilities. Today's standards in the healthcare industry demand cutting edge skills. With a global perspective, this book addresses the huge gap faced by students in the leap to clinical practice, drawing on the latest research, and contains commentary from leadership of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Currently, there is no other book, and little in the way of curricular guidance for this growing and critical area of professional training. The author covers the scientific underpinnings of successful supervision and mentorship and, uniquely, uses a case study approach to present each of the teaching/supervision exemplars. With competencies and strategies for clinical education at the highest level, Science of Successful Supervision and Mentorship is original and comprehensive in its accounts of practitioners and their practice.
