Supervisors communicate the organizational needs and oversee the day-to-day performance as well as the care and well-being of employees. They are responsible for guidance and support of employee development needs. These responsibilities lead employees toward success within their positions and potentially their careers.

Front-line supervisors are traditionally promoted from their individual contributor roles where the focus is on a singular functional job. Newly-minted front-line supervisors must direct and manage the performance of others as well as their own. With a new role comes new challenges and opportunities and the question you need to ask yourself is, “Am I prepared for this; do I have what it takes?”

This program is designed for leads and those considering a supervisory position to educate on how to succeed in a new role BEFORE they say yes. It is important to know what you are saying yes to – no surprises. This program will focus on:

• What to know, consider, and ask yourself before you take the job of Supervisor
• Helping you evaluate your motivation for wanting to manage people
• Understanding the competencies needed to be an effective Supervisor
• Understanding the roles, functions and activities included in the position
• The benefits and contributions of being a Supervisor
