Frontline leadership

How would you handle these situations?

Every shift brings decisions about safety, production, coaching, and the crew. Work through 30 situations, choosing the most and least effective of four responses to each. Your results show how you approach six areas of crew leadership, where you are strongest, and two priorities to develop next. Each priority comes with a practical 30-day routine. This assessment is for shift supervisors, team leads, and operators moving into leadership. If you lead several crews or a plant, try the Manufacturing Manager Assessment.
