Supervisor-Employee Partnering
Are Your Supervisors The Reason Your Employees Stay or the Reason They Leave?
The number one factor influencing employees' decisions to stay with their employer is their relationship with their immediate supervisor. Because of this, you have to be certain that your supervisors consistently demonstrate Values For Employing. Employing Values are different from your overall business values. They relate specifically to the way you and your supervisors deal with employees.
KEi has developed this tool to assist your organization in identifying these Values For Employing. Your supervisors should possess attitudes, skills and behaviors that are consistent with Values For Employing to ensure that they are helping - not hurting - the employee turnover situation.
These Values For Employing attitudes, skills and behaviors make a supervisor successful across the three primary functions that supervisors perform:
- Administrating
- Coaching
- Counseling
Using this tool, the supervisors complete an anonymous self-evaluation. With this information, the gaps between Management intent and the beliefs, strengths and weaknesses of the supervisory group become apparent. Because this is done anonymously, the supervisors are more likely to submit an honest self-assessment.
This tool produces an analysis of supervisors and a measurement of top management's ability to communicate the organization's Values For Employing to the supervisory staff.
The tool supports Supervisor-Employee Partnering by allowing employees to evaluate their supervisors, again anonymously. Results indicate how well supervisors are practicing the company's Values For Employing according to the actual employees being supervised.
KEi assists top management in translating these findings into clear action steps. Training interactions with the supervisors are then conducted by KEi, bridging the gap between supervisor behaviors and the management Values For Employing.
