[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have any book recommendations for someone who is becoming a supervisor? How to be a good boss type stuff?[/quote] Does anyone have any personal advice (not just book recs) on how to make the transition from "individual contributor" to a manager/supervisor? asking as someone with a few years of experience..moving up here usually means supervising--no real "subject matter expert" track. [/quote] Empower your staff to make decisions Give people a leash with which to hang themselves, but be ready to cut the rope before they do Biggest challenge: get comfortable not knowing the details Show loyalty and you engender loyalty Be honest in your feedback Remember that "kudos" and small thank yous go far Let your staff present to your boss. Enabling them demonstrates your ability to create new leaders. As you move up, it's not about your face time - its about leveraging them[/quote]
