It is a wonderful feeling when you have been selected for promotion to a supervisory position. Most of us like the feeling of added prestige, the feeling of empowering others and the feeling of progress that all go with the higher position. We are pleased that management has recognized our ability and are eager to use the skills that got us noticed in the first place. Those skills may include natural supervision technique, however most of us need some help at learning to supervise and manage other adults. 

Coaching for Results I

Coaching employees is a gratifying experience, and from the first day you may be confronted with many problems and situations requiring immediate action. Having strategies in place to encourage, correct and challenge your team makes life a lot easier.  It is as simple as noticing how your team is performing and then letting them know you notice. In other words, coaching is the process of letting people know that what they do matters to you. Some of the skills within this first program include but are not limited to:

1. Learn to facilitate changes of behavior within others.
   

2. Learn the 3 different times and 3 different ways to let your team know they matter.
   

3. Use the 2-minute challenge when they are on the wrong road, let them know it.
   

Coaching & Partnering for Results II

Most supervisors understand the importance of training people in their technical skill-based functions such as engineering, finance or clerical. However, if you are a supervisor in a working organization or company, no matter what your particular function may be, you share with other supervisors a need to be trained in such matters as: Interpersonal skills, performance management, coaching, giving recognition, time management, positive discipline and assertive communication. General supervisory training such as Situational Supervision Styles and partnering for results do not pay off immediately the way other training usually does. It is a kind of inexpensive preventative maintenance that forestalls costly major breakdowns. As with other investments of personal effort that people make, the payoff is in the future. Supervisory training pays off because people work best when they like their jobs. Good supervision has a lot to do with whether they like their job, work flows more smoothly. There are fewer disciplinary actions, fewer formal grievances, turnover, and better production.
