A Supervisor Reflection Report

A good supervisor is firm and yet gentle with the employees. Providing continuous and constructive feedback to employees is a must for a person in any supervisory capacity. Supervisors who are helpful and appreciative of good work are much better in their capacity as

Kadushin describes a supervisor as someone "to whom authority is delegated to direct, coordinate, enhance, and evaluate on-the-job performance of the supervisees for whose work he/she is held accountable. In implementing this responsibility, the supervisor performs administrative, educational, and supportive functions in interaction with the supervisee in the context of a positive relationship" (Powell, 1993).

I found that my top five weaknesses are as follows: 1. Money management, 2. Understanding technology, 3. Energy level, 4. Seeking support from others and 5. Ability to focus on one thing at a time (Bethel University, 2014).

Weaknesses I have had difficulty on is having to write essays. Every time my teachers assign me work to perform that involves writing an essay for instance, I tend to get frustrated. I would often spend hours trying to craft an idea on what to write about and how I should word it in my essay. An additional problem is when I read the paper to myself and looks fine, but when I turn the paper over to someone else, they do not find the point I was trying to convey. Then, I would have to verbally express the key ideas or meaning of the essay. My next two weaknesses are the ones that I still continue to kind of struggle. Those weaknesses are not finding the right words to write and being easily

Being able to recognize my own strengths and weaknesses has help me become a better person in everything I have chosen to do in life. One of my strengths would be patience. This strength has lead me on a less stressful path to raising my seven-year-old son. When dealing with my son, whether it is during game time or school work, patience on my behalf makes me have self-control and not get anxious or become irritated. One of my weakness I would have to say is public speaking. Thanks to the speech class I took in college, I have learned to hide my fear while doing a presentation in front a big group of people, even though I begin to blush and I break

The Department’s sergeants and other supervisors have the most influence and impact on these front-line personnel. Many of DSD’s direct supervisors are dedicated and hardworking individuals who strive to treat their employees well and support them in their daily activities. Yet our assessment revealed a number of concerns that need to be addressed by the new Sheriff and members of the command staff. Command deputies need to be more consistent in their expectations of subordinates. This will help employees better understand the Department’s priorities and what actions and behaviors they need to adopt and demonstrate in order to advance DSD goals. Direct supervisors and DSD leaders have a critical role in building morale

If the interviewer were to ask, what do you feel are your biggest weaknesses? Look for ways to discuss weaknesses as opportunities for improvement/learning and/or include things you’ve already done to improve/learn. I am very good with children, but I have to improve my computers skills which in this time is very important to know.

A weakness that I definitely have is procrastination. A lot of the time I would wait up until the last minute to try to do things, especially when it came to my first drafts. I was never too concerned with those, but I wish I would have been. I would always rush to get it done and I would forget important points that I wanted to talk about. When I realized how much better it was to not procrastinate, I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. It was easier to organize my papers and make sure all points were being thoroughly discussed. When I didn’t do this, I would feel like my mind and the paper was all over the place. When I didn’t procrastinate, I wouldn’t worry as much about getting the paper done. I was overall happier with my paper when I was turning it in.

Two other weaknesses are time-management and organization. These two goes hand in hand and I realized that I suffer tremendously from lack thereof and have found multiple solutions to help enhance these weaknesses as I expressed in the IDP. I feel these two will be challenging as well because I realize that organization at work is limited. It is much more of filling in the gaps and

One of my weaknesses would probably be my social skills, but I am constantly trying to work on overcoming this obstacle. Teaching is also not something in my blood, but as an English tutor, I will primarily have to work with individuals one-on-one

My weak area was the self-regulation portion; most of my responses to how often I handled each situation were “usually.” I need to improve on controlling my feelings in certain situations, trying to be more aware of tasks and their proposed deadlines, managing my time wisely, and executing new ideas that I myself have formulated. Other weaknesses were found in most of the areas where my strengths were. Most of them involved taking risks, which my personality often deters me from engaging in.

Everyone has a weakness and mine happens to be learning from mistakes and experiences. The way that I typically learn is by making a mistake and

Last year, I worked as a Mechanical Development Engineering Co-op at Mercury Marine. Based on the final supervisor evaluation at Mercury, following are the three areas I would like to focus on while my time here at Cummins:

A good supervisor will inspire, challenge, and motivate their employees. In addition, a supervisor has the ability to stay focused and is able see the big picture. However, one could possibly argue that the best quality that a good supervisor must possess is the skill to recognize the potential in others. Nevertheless, the most important skill a supervisor must possess is the ability to help those around realize their own potential.

Due to my passive nature, I’ve always avoided leadership roles. With that being said I still aspire to be someone who can be looked to as a leader. In order to reach that goal I observe and try to mimic the actions of people that inspire me. There have been many people I’ve taken orders from, but I have “followed” few. Those are the ones I consider to be true leaders, and have tried to be like myself.
