Hi, my name is Pete Gazzaro.

I want to welcome you today to the Emotionally Healthy Leader Podcast.

And our topic today is a part two, a roadmap for transformational supervision.

Again, roadmap for transformational supervision, part two.

And so today I want to briefly review what I touched on last week, and then I want to dive into this next level around supervision, giving a more complex, a more nuanced, a higher level roadmap here for transformational supervision.

Now, again, the operational word is transformational, not simply for the person you're supervising,

but for you and for everyone that you're serving here in the name of Jesus. I'm going to use

case studies today. I want to thank so many of you for sending in case studies this past week,

and I plan to work with seven of them here during our time together. And I'd wanted to

touch on a variety of themes, like hiring and firing, power and boundaries, dual relationships,

hierarchy and genogram, differentiation. And it's interesting, you can teach in these things,

but it's so much better to get out through the case studies, and it's so wonderful because all these issues came out in the

different case studies, as you will see. So let's take a few moments here, and let me review

what I touched on last week in part one. And again, if you didn't listen to part one, you'll

want to go back and listen to that as you listen to

part two today. So again, the thesis I made last week was that those you oversee are not simply

a means to get the work done. They actually are the work to which God's called you to. And

work performance and spiritual formation can't be separated.

In fact, the way you supervise people is critical for culture formation in the ministry

you're building.

It's very challenging.

It is among the top two or three most difficult parts of being a leader.
