Employees can have styles that are analytical, amiable, expressive or drivers. All the styles have strengths and weaknesses.  As a supervisor or manager, it's important to understand how best to manage each employee. 

All of this material should be required for every manager, everywhere! I'd like to send it to a few managers I've had over the years that did a very poor job by NOT incorporating any of this common-sense knowledge. It is so time-consuming and expensive to continually turn over employees due to poor management, yet it seems to be common practice. 

I found the tutorial very informative and easy to listen to with the audio recording version. When I took the quiz at the end it was very confirming to pass the quiz as a director of education between professional practices and the industry tutorial. Thank you!

Supervisory Skills are very important to maximize employee productivity.

I look forward to seeing our instructors use the suggestions from the tutorial to help our classrooms be a better learning environment.

I will have to take in consideration the different employee types.  Thinking about my faculty, I can see some difference already.

I will try to recognize different people's personalities a little better

When managing large teams it is important to recognize various styles to et the best results. This was a great short training. 

How have you dealt with employee conflict when your direct report(s) demonstrate lack of respect for your position? 

In order to accomplish and complete tasks on a positive note the communication is key. Without the proper communication the responsibilities and success can fall short. All parties involved must be present and communicative throughout the process. Never assume before speaking to all parties involved. If you do not understand, do not have extra time or are the wrong person for a task, speak up and talk about the issues. Never be afraid to say no if it is for feasible reasons.
