Supervision: An Innovative Guide to Being the Supervisor When Your Employees Are Young and Inexperienced

Kelly Crowe

Read this book if you want to be a happier supervisor. I wrote the book that I wish I had when I first started supervising college students and young professionals. I wrote it because I thought it might help you. The experiences that I wrote about in this book were gained from years working on university campuses. During that time, I supervised college students, graduate students, and young professionals who were just getting started with their careers. I worked specifically in the Department of Residential Life. If you are not familiar with the term Residential Life Staff, think about the staff who work on a college or university campus with responsibilities related to the students who live on campus. Resident Assistants (RAs) and Front Desk Staff are the most common type of Residential Life Staff. There are many other types of hard-working members of the Residential Life team, and they often go by a variety of titles. For example, we gave Resident Assistants (RAs) the title of Community Coordinators (CCs). If you work on a college campus with student employees, this book is ideal for you. If your work environment is not exactly the same as mine, do not put this book down; I think you will still find the information to be helpful. If you want any of these 5 things, I can help: 1. To feel organized and less stressed. 2. To have the respect of the people you are supervising. 3. To learn new strategies for fixing problems. 4. To create a positive work culture. 5. To be happy and feel inspired. College students and other young, inexperienced employees do not show up on their first day of work with confidence and the ability to do the job they were hired to do. They need you. They need your training, corrections, praise, enthusiasm, and leadership. They need a supervisor, and they need supervision. I know you are busy and probably stressed trying to figure out how you are going to do it all. Don’t worry; this book was designed to be a tool for supervisors with busy schedules. You can read it cover to cover, or you can flip straight to the chapter that will be most helpful with your current work situation.
