Description

Leaders and supervisors do not grow on trees; they must be developed. 'Developing Supervisors and Team Leaders' is a practical, how-to guide for creating leaders and supervisors. Spanning topics from determining needs to evaluating performance, it covers all aspects of how to develop the skills, insights, and attitude to lead others. Kirkpatrick demonstrates how to get others to share the same focus, purpose, and efforts toward improving an organization's quality of product or service. From determining needs, planning programs and training to the final evaluation, this book provides knowledge and practical tools for developing successful leaders. Donald Kirkpatrick, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of the University of Wisconsin, is the author of numerous books and articles on the subject of management and performance.
