Supervision is a special challenge that can help you reach new career and lifestyle goals. You have the “right stuff” or the management would not have given you the opportunity to become a leader in the first place. However, becoming a successful leader is not as easy as some people might expect. Your attitude, behavior and organizational habits will set the pace and tone in your department.
