Worker Empowerment and Supervision
According to Shera and Page (1995) a critical aspect of empowerment-
oriented social service organization is that supervisors promote positive
relationships and images through the development of positive language, help
staff focus on client strengths, and model appropriate behaviors and values to
staff (p. 4). Peer consultation for staff members who need assistance with
workplace issues may also be an effective means to provide support and
consequently increase a sense of personal empowerment and autonomy
(Shera & Page, 1995).
