Introduction
Clinical supervision and clinical consulting can be considered as the most important
and the most critical aspect of the health care and allied health care delivery processes. It help
the health practitioners to provide and contribute to a patient-centered care and clinical
decision-making process in an organizational framework as well as in a patient care and
student education scenario (Parés, Ospina & Subirats, 2017). Clinical supervision is a very
crucial aspect of overseeing the duties of the junior staffs and in an academic framework – it
is highly important that supervisors should follow a critical supervisory style. This is because
it support in teaching, educating, motivating and critical thinking, mentoring, advising,
conducting the evaluations of the performances, act as a role model to modify, and built the
professional behavior in the students, studying in the medical and allied medical academic
framework (Caillier, 2020). It is vital that the supervisory style must be linked to the
leadership styles and this finds a vast application in the educational setting of speech-
language pathology (Tight, 2019). Personality traits, behavioral types and the perception plus
decision-making skills of the leader marks the choice of specific leadership style the
individual is about to follow and in the field of speech-language therapy. The choice and the
very selection of the supervision style play a huge role in the development of a correct or
inefficient supervisory style in a graduate-level education framework and the same applied in
the field of speech-language therapy as well (Fiaz, Su & Saqib, 2017). It is to be noted that in
the supervisory style can be of three cardinal types and based on the traits of the individual’s
and the cognitive aspects of the educator. It is the right supervisory style has to be put to
practice in order to teach, motivate, educate, clarify the concepts, and teach the intrapersonal
and the interpersonal skills to the graduate students in the field of speech-language pathology.
The supervisory styles are of three cardinal types – authoritarian style, laissez-faire style and
democratic style (Peker, Inandi & Giliç, 2018).
