Organizational Development

Supervision

In today's business, the supervisor or team leader is the main link between the organizational goals and the people who are responsible for the daily activities that make those goals a reality. Because of the necessary and integral role that this position plays, it is obvious that good supervisors and team leaders are key to the success of any organization.

Many everyday decisions required within this role effect profits, productivity, service levels, as well as attitudes, and morale. With a role and function of this magnitude, it would seem logical that the process of becoming a supervisor and team leader would require years and years of training in the required skills. Almost universally, today's supervisory force is made up of men and women who have been promoted from being a super worker to being a supervisor or team leader.

Attitude Development:

Attitude is the basis of all individual behavior. The effectiveness of supervisors will depend on their behavior in a given situation. Improved results and productivity begins by developing the attitudes that govern behavior.

Behavior Management Skills:

Better than 50% of a supervisor's or team leader's time is spent managing other people. To be effective in this role, it is important that the individual develop the skills necessary to effectively communicate and maximize productivity.

Goal Accomplishment:

A supervisor not only sets goals, but also needs to determine how they will be achieved, what obstacles must be overcome in the process, and the time line necessary. The Supervision process provides a proven goal accomplishment model that can be immediately applied to any organization.

I have drafted this letter to share with you the tremendous positive impact Norman’s Executive Coaching services have had on me, the department that I lead and the company at large.

I began to work with Norman in 2013 as an Executive Coach; I was seeking his advice to chart the vision for Finance as the company was growing quickly. As part of the process Norman conducted a 360 Degree assessment by interviewing my colleagues at the Executive level as well as our CEO. This exercise would help me gain valuable insight as to what they felt my strengths and areas for improvement were in role of CFO. In addition, he worked with me on a personality profile to better understand how my style would work within the organizational culture and expectations of my role. This was an enlightening experience that set the tone for the areas that I would be working on to achieve a higher level of success within the organization.
