Instructions: Dr. Rasmussen scheduled your supervision meeting for next Thursday. The email that Dr. Rasmussen provides you is as such:
Good Morning!
Thank you for accepting the email invitation for our second weekly supervision meeting. I want to give you an overview of what we will be discussing this week:
We will discuss our client population and your experience of working with different cultures. Take time to think about the similarities and differences of cultures that you have interacted with at work, but also in your personal life. What sense have you made of these cultural dynamics that you have observed throughout your life? How does understanding differences and encountering unfamiliar cultures translate to your passion for working within the field of Human Services?
I would also like to delve into your own cultural identity. Think about the cultural group(s) you identify with. Why is it important for all Human Services Professionals to promote the acceptance of all cultures and the inclusion of all cultures? What steps can this agency take towards ensuring the promotion of acceptance and the inclusion of all cultures so that the work done [as Human Services Professionals] is effective and efficient?
I look forward to conversing with you and having an interactive session. As your supervisor, my role is to serve as a vessel towards assisting you as you move towards becoming the best Human Services Professional possible. In the meantime, if you need me, please feel free to contact me!
Ralph
