In most industries, the First Line Supervisor serves as the bridge between staff and management; this is the person tasked with communicating effectively to both of these groups and ensuring both understand the needs and concerns of the other. First Line Supervisors are key to cultivating positive morale among staff members and positioned best to identify a policy or procedure that is not working currently and improve upon these issues for the benefit of both staff and management. Being an effective First Line Supervisor takes a particular kind of self-starter with a constant eye toward improvement so as to not just oversee staff, but really take on new projects geared toward perfecting processes and enhancing the overall environment by taking all viewpoints into account.
