The Agency offers several such supervisory and management courses to employees. But because the Agency courses are so generic, the Director of Logistics (D/L) tasked the Personnel and Training Staff (P&TS) to devise a carefully tailored course that would meet the specific needs of the Office of Logistics. The staff set about designing the first "Supervising in OL" course with a great deal of enthusiasm, creativity and effort. The first running was in August, the second in October and the third in November. All three sessions were well received by all students, with many stating they wished they had been given this type of training years ago. Those selected to take the course were already serving in supervisory positions, for the most part. Thirty students per class attended the four day course at the STAT learning about the Logistics Career Service, the comparative evaluation panel system, the mission of the Logistics Career Board, and the policy on leave, pay and hours of work. The first day also included lectures on management styles and behavior, as well as on motivating and leading techniques. The following day was set aside for a performance evaluation workshop, while topics on the remaining two days included grievance procedures, EEO, sexual harassment, security issues, dealing with problem employees, working with three year trial period employees, and a briefing by the Special Activities Staff. On the final day students were given information on awards and training and had the opportunity to work in groups on case studies. The D/L did the wrap-up, then everyone took a quiz (consisting of 50 questions all thoroughly covered in the course) followed by a review of the questions and answers. The December course will be the fourth running, and plans call for seven additional courses in the coming year. The staff and guest speakers try their best to present their information so that it is timely and helpful to the attendees, and to provide them with the tools needed to become effective supervisors. The feedback to date has been very positive. OL careerists permanently assigned to supervisory positions must successfully complete "Supervising in OL" (see LN 20-1-76 dated July 1988) If you have not taken the course, and it is mandatory for all supervisors, see your group chief and sign up for one of the upcoming sessions.
