Supervision today!

Developed by respected educators in the field, this introduction to supervision is built around practical skills and reflects how supervisors work in the 2000s. The book opens by defining the supervisor's role, then moves into a broad range of real-world scenarios showing how supervisors handle their daily responsibilities. Its central concern is the set of abilities that make supervision effective, including setting goals, delegating tasks, preparing budgets, conducting interviews, negotiating, counseling and coaching employees, running group meetings, and resolving grievances.
