Excerpt:
Introduction
Training and development are areas of great concern to the
supervisor. The efficiency, safety, and even the morale of the employee depends
upon how well the supervisor trains his or her employees. Make no mistake.
Training is the supervisor’s responsibility. In some companies professional trainers
provide basic and specialty training, but it’s the supervisor’s responsibility
to ensure all employees receive the proper training when these training
sessions are provided.
A Supervisor’s Training
Before we get into the specifics of employee training let’s
talk about supervisor training. Before you can teach you must have the
knowledge to teach. Many supervisors neglect this important fact and fail to
obtain proper training for their job. Don’t be afraid to ask for training. Lack
of knowledge on a particular subject doesn’t infer you’re a bad supervisor. You
were promoted to the supervisor’s position for your knowledge, supervisory
skills, and other attributes associated with supervisor responsibilities. You
don’t have to know all things all the time. If you need additional knowledge,
training, or assistance don’t be hesitant about asking experienced employees.
They will be more than happy to help you learn new information and skills. Many
supervisors mistakenly believe that asking an employee about a particular
machine or process is showing weakness or a lack of knowledge. Asking for help
is a strength, not a weakness. If you’re not knowledgeable about something ask
your boss, staff members, and employees. Stumbling around in the dark about
something because you were afraid to ask someone is much worse, and is a
leadership deficiency. Find out what training is available to you through the
company, then take advantage of it. Someone who
Learn On Your Own
Next, learn on your own. How many newly promoted supervisors
try to learn more about their new position by reading new books, and getting
outside education? If you want to get ahead, you do. Don’t expect the company
to provide every bit of training you’re going to need as a supervisor. You’re a
mature professional, and if it means going to the library or night school after
hours to brush up on knowledge then that’s what you should do.
Training & Development
We mentioned training & development at the beginning of
this program. That seems like a catchy phrase, but what is the difference
between training and development? Training programs focus on the preparation of
the employee….
