Supervision and Management Overview

What is the Personnel Management Style on Your Farm?

Would you like more time? Less stress? More energy?

Time for a reality check. Take a look around your farm. Recognize any of the following in either yourself or your supervisory employees?

You stay on top of problems by solving crises
You handle emergencies
You resolve conflict flare-ups
You deal with present situations with little thought to the future

If you recognize yourself, or your supervisors, in this description, you may be managing by reaction, or through default, rather than planning for success.

Considering ahead of time how you are going to supervise and work with your employees could help put you more firmly in control of your farm business.

Planning is going to help you stay ahead, and make the dreams you have for your business a reality.
