[quote=Anonymous]OP, you are a manager who isn't doing your complete job.  As several people have pointed out, you need to take the time to implement 360 degree reviews either now or at the next annual review period (hopefully you didn't just complete this in December as this needs to be done sooner rather than later and not wait another 10 months).  You need to have input from the supervisor's direct report staff on him, his evaluations on them, his evaluations of you and any other management team he works with, and them of him.  You need to have a more complete picture of the management structure than just his input to you.  Essentially, you are basing your entire evaluation of this situation on what this one supervisor says of his staff and that type of one-sided picture will not serve you well.

Your evaluation of this employee and the current situation may well be correct, but you have no way to verify this without getting more information from all parties including his remaining direct reports and his management.  So, you need to actually step in and manage the situation.  Once you have a better picture of what his staff thinks and what his management thinks, then you can determine whether you are justified in taking his one perspective on the current staffing situation.  You'll get a better picture of whether you have disgruntled employees venting about the messenger or whether you have an actual supervisory issue to address.  Either can be true, but neither your supervisor's single POV or crowdsourcing on DCUM is going to give you a better perspective on which situation you have without actually doing the research with those currently and actively involved.[/quote]
