35% of workers would forgo a pay raise if their direct supervisor was fired.

Yahoo - Finance survey, 2012

 

Front-line supervisors generally have technical knowledge.
Almost all are weak to marginal in regard to management skills.
 

 

The following applies to front-line supervisors:  

  • 80% of EMPLOYEE TURNOVER comes from 20% of the supervisors.
  • Many are promoted for their TECHNICAL knowledge. 
  • Few are given any management development PRIOR to the promotion.
  • Few are given any AFTER the promotion.
  • Too many FAIL to meet expectations.   

Case study: A manufacturing company promoted an employee to supervisor. He was given no training or development prior to the promotion. The employees complained that he was the worst supervisor ever. The saving grace was that he cared and tried. The employees said later that each day he got better - on his own. How much easier would it have been if the organization had helped him before and during his promotion? Countless money wasted, employee engagement squandered, morale needing to be repaired.
