Whether you’re stepping into your first leadership role or have years of experience under your belt, Basic Training for Managers and Supervisors is your hands-on guide to managing people and programs effectively.
Author Gordon Gibbs pulls from a career spent leading teams in forestry, fire management, and corrections to deliver no-nonsense, real-world advice. You won’t find empty theory here—just practical strategies, clear examples, and straight talk on what it really takes to lead well.
Inside you’ll find:
· Proven techniques for hiring the right people—and avoiding the wrong ones
· Step-by-step guidance for handling evaluations, corrective actions, and
discipline
· Tools for building morale, managing time, and reducing stress
· Advice on communication, delegation, and decision-making
· Strategies for coaching, mentoring, and developing your team
· Real stories that highlight what to do—and what not to do
This book is both a playbook and a field guide, built for supervisors who want to lead with purpose, handle problems head-on, and build strong, productive teams. Whether you're in the office, on a job site, or managing shift work, this is the training manual you wish you had on day one.
