RESPONSIBILITIES OF A SUPERVISOR • That learning about people rather than tasks is a new responsibility for Supervisors. • That Supervisors have responsibilities to their Bosses, Staff, other Supervisors, and Guests. • That Employees at all levels depend on me to get the job done. • That I am responsible for helping my property meet its objectives.
***TIPS for new Supervisors Don’t expect to know all the answers right away. Learn from other supervisors and your own employees. Ask for their opinions and advice. Don’t let your insecurity get in the way of your doing your job. Taking on any new job is a scary experience, but remember that somebody thought you were good enough to be a Supervisor.
Don’t make the same mistakes the person you’re replacing did. Be aware of his or her weakness. Don’t make a big splash first. It’s best to keep a low profile and test the water before you make major decisions and changes. Don’t be humorless. A sense of humor -- about others and yourself -- puts people at ease. Never be embarrassed to ask questions.
