Building a relationship with your team is important; they should know what is expected from every member of the team including the supervisor. Starting out on day one, I would have a clear outline of what is expected out of each team member and what everyone’s responsibilities are, then I would ask the team one on one what they want and need from a supervisor. This dialog starts the line of communication and a basis of mutual understanding and trust. Everyone needs different things from their supervisor and understanding that one size doesn’t fit all is very important.…
