Using OARS in Clinical Supervison

As an MI enthusiast, I am always seeking opportunities to practice OARS skills. As a supervisor of 8 clinicians, the primary way that I interact with individuals one-on-one is during supervision, so it naturally fits that I have taken advantage of this time to practice the use of OARS. At first this practice was clumsy and awkward, and after about 6 months of practicing this 8 times weekly, it continues to be challenging yet rewarding.  I find that when I am able to use OARS with staff, it helps them to develop their inner locus of control, builds their perceived self efficacy and helps to strengthen the relationship between supervisor and supervisee. I have found that using OARS with staff is the most efficient way of communicating information and the use of these skills yields better results from the supervision conversation.
