Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) is a contemporary qualitative research method grounded in phenomenology, hermeneutics, and idiography. Philosophical principles and rigorous methodology make this approach well suited for research in counselor education and supervision. In this primer, the authors introduce counselor educators,…

Metacognitive capacity (i.e., thinking about how one thinks) is a fundamental component of critical leadership development. This chapter offers practical insights on how to leverage the exploration of implicit leader prototypes as a powerful vehicle for building metacognitive capacity.

Mentoring, coaching, and advising are often confused as similar interactions with developmental intent, yet their scope, purpose, and utility in leadership development are distinct.
