Summary
General practitioners describe varied professional agency in supervision before training. Understanding these differences, from master-apprentice to dialogical styles, can improve supervisor development programs.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Professional Development
- General Practice Training
Background:
- Workplace supervision is crucial for trainee skill development.
- Competence-based medical education necessitates distinct clinical and pedagogical supervisor skills.
- Understanding the development of supervisory competencies is limited.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore general practitioners' professional agency in supervision prior to training.
- To define professional agency as an individual's capacity and commitment to professional action.
Main Methods:
- Participants submitted self-descriptions before a supervisor training module.
- Narrative positioning analysis was used to examine described professional agency.
Main Results:
- Three types of professional agency were identified: master-apprentice, clinical skills with collegial relationship, and process-oriented dialogical supervision.
- Supervision primarily focuses on clinical skills, with a desire to be effective but also expressed uncertainty.
Conclusions:
- Varied supervisor agency and pedagogical skills present challenges for tailored training.
- Differences offer opportunities for peer-to-peer learning and enhanced supervisor training development.

In this situation,...
