| What is happening, or failing to happen, that is causing the trouble? |
The supervisee is not communicating with the correct format for the lack of an emergency. The supervisor is also holding off on discussing this matter with the supervisee, causing him to become frustrated. This can result in being mad and frustrated later when the feedback is given. |
The supervisee does not know the rules for communicating with the supervisor and the supervisor is not providing direct feedback. |
| How might the supervisor go about improving this situation? |
Have the supervision meeting earlier and go over what situations require a phone call, text, or email. |
Provide clear rules for communicating and include many examples, then provide immediate feedback that is direct when an unnecessary text is sent in the future. |
