The five crucial aspects of the supervisory experience: 1. Organizational Leader - being able to direct a staff/team to reach the goals and objectives to fulfill the needs of their clients. 2. Managing - to have the knowledge and skills for planning, budgeting, organizing, developing human resources and evaluating the program necessary to fulfill the needs of their clients. 3. Performance - being responsible for themselves and their staff/team to fulfill the needs of their clients. 4. Mediator - to be aware of all staff relationships between one another and to be aware of relationships between staff and clients. 5. Mentor - to provide emotional support to help staff/team with the knowledge and skills needed to fulfull the needs of their clients.To give the staff/team the ability to express their own feelings and responses to the various issues of the clients they service.
These are what I consider the 5 most crucial aspects of the supervisory experience:
1. Communication – Open, consistent communication in all forms is paramount between supervisors and employees. Everybody needs to be on the same page. I could give you a really long list of the different types of communication that take place daily…but I won’t. 2. Time Management – Besides supervising people & client issues, there are tons of committees and special projects, clients, systems issues, and dealing with upper management. To be effective, supervisors need to know their limits - not take on too much, learn the art of delegation, and get really good at multi-tasking. 3. Team Building – Supervisors have to get staff to buy in to the agency and to the work they are doing. We should motivate them, offer them trainings, keep them informed and make sure they have the resources they need to do their jobs. And, do activities that promote cohesiveness. There’s so much stress in the job, it’s just a good idea to do something non-work related together every once in awhile. I know some people don’t agree with this, but I think it’s valuable. 4. Problem Solving – A good supervisor teaches this skill to the staff and their job gets a whole lot easier. It’s also really helpful to not be afraid to be wrong. If you think it’s okay to make mistakes you’re more likely to try a lot of different approaches and so are your staff. 5. Managing Change – Especially in this field, things change all the time. People change jobs a lot, so just when you get a good contact, someone else is there instead. Then there are funder’s requirements, paperwork changes, new therapies & theories on treatment, etc. Supervisors have to present change in a way that the staff will be accepting.
The five crucial aspects of the supervisory experience: 1) Avoiding Employment Burnout- As a supervisor this is an important aspect because in the field employees have a tendency to become overloaded and emotional exhaustion. The key is to provide support, lowering caseloads, and assigning a varied types of clients. 2) Affirmation of workers strengths- Feedback should be given to the worker as soon as possible after a performance. Good feedback involves sharing ideas rather than giving advice. 3)Multicultural perspectives-supervisor must have knowledge as well as awareness of different cultures that are being serviced by their organization. Supervision takes place within an environmental context, so it is important for supervisors to be muticulturally competent not just in the one-to-one supervisory relationship but also in the daily life of the organization. 4)Continued learning-This should be done because leaders are responsible for building organizations were people continually expand their capabilities to understand complexity,clarify vision, and improve education of staff. This can be done through the supervisor or with an outside source of professional development. 5)Measurement of performance- Measurements need to be valid, observable, and uniform. Measurements should be understandable when they are presented and there should not be too many measures.
My Strengths that I add to an administrative setting
1. My life experience- I think that since I have experience many bumps in my life and have been on the other side of the desk. I can offer quit a bit to an organization. 2. Leadership skills- I think that I am a self-starter. I don’t need a lot of guidance when it comes to getting the goals that are set forth for me accomplished. 3. Good listening skills- I feel as though I have good reflective listening skills. Sometimes I listen too much. 4. Organizational sills- I belief that everything has a place and there is a time for everything. I particle live off from my date book, even my free time is scheduled in.
The five most crucial aspects of supervisory experience I believe are: 1)Active listener:the ability to really hear what someone is saying and understand the message is formost. 2)Leadership skills:the skills to inspire/motivate performance and growth.Anyone can say "do this" but to be able to make a personell want to perform up to the level you need and desire, that is leadership. 3)Delegation: one must know how to distribute work load fairly but also with an understanding of which tasks best fit with each individual team member. 4)Mediation skills/diplomacy:a good mediator finds solutions before the mediation is in process, knowing how to tactfully and non-judgementally address each team members concerns; knowing how to have difficult conversations. 5)Attention to detail:when a supervisor is aware of all aspects of their work and team they are able to be proactive rather than reactive.
The five most important supervisory experiences are:
1. Leadership- a leader should be one who can motivate a staff to achieve the organizations goals and objectives.
2. Communication- a true leader is one who can communicate goals and listen to ideas and concerns from staff.
3. Management- a leader or supervisor is one who has the knowledge to plan, organize, and motivate others, even through stressful times.
4. Recognition- it is very important for a supervisor to see the achievements of staff and recognize these efforts and accomplishments. I always think there should be policies of rewards and recognition which motivates staff to continue to succeed.
5. time management- a successful leader, or supervisor, is one who can plan strategically for goals, and be able to jump the hurdles of challanges that may, and will, come up.
