May we talk…?
Have you ever had a “bad supervisor?”
Chances are your response is a resounding, “Yes!” Many of us have worked with a bad supervisor and/or hired one. I know I have had my share. Heck, I may have even been one when I started out! As is true of many, I was promoted into a supervisor position because I performed well in my previous position. While the promotion was recognition and reward for good performance, I was neither trained nor prepared for such a move. Unfortunately, this method of selecting supervisors is commonly used. However, just because someone is a great sales representative doesn’t mean that s/he will be a great sales supervisor or boss! The impact of ill-prepared supervisors on workforces and workplaces can be devastating.

Studies show that supervisors are the most influential group in the organization. Therefore, they determine the employee experience, employee engagement, and productivity (both positively and negatively). Yet, organizations place the wrong person in supervisor positions an astounding 82% of the time! Even more astounding is the impact of bad supervisors. They cost U.S. organizations $319-$398 billion per year in lost productivity and clients/customers.

How do you feel about designing, developing, and implementing training programs on diversity & inclusion, sexual harassment, or bullying? What about training your supervisors? Do you feel that you have the wherewithal, comfortability, or time?
$13.5million/per year/1,000 employees costs of ineffective training
According to a 2015 study conducted by the Association of Training and Development (ATD) 62% of HR managers feel that they do not do a good job of meeting the learner’s needs. Another study found that 33% of learner’s feel that uninspiring training content is a barrier to their learning. Additionally, ineffective training costs businesses $13.5 million per year, per 1,000 employees.
Further, currently our workforce does not include enough adequately trained and qualified people to supply the supervisor pipeline necessary to make a positive difference in U.S. organizations. As such, there are workplace issues that are not being appropriately addressed and managed because supervisors/managers are not adequately trained to do so.
