Workplace productivity and morale depend in large part on the quality and skill of your supervisors. A common mistake is to promote the “best” or “most senior” employee to a supervisory position, with little regard for leadership skills. Once in the position, most supervisors are not trained on effective management techniques to motivate and evaluate employees.
