TWI Program: 5 Needs Model For Good Supervisors Poster (PDF)

Introducing the "5 Needs Model for Good Supervisors" poster, designed specifically for the Training Within Industry (TWI) community. This poster is an essential tool for any organization looking to develop their supervisors' skills and achieve maximum efficiency in their operations.

The poster highlights the five key elements that every supervisor needs to succeed: Knowledge of the Work, Knowledge of Responsibilities, Skill in Instructing, Skill in Improving Methods, and Skill in Leading. Here's a closer look at what each element entails:

•  Knowledge of the Work: This element refers to the kind of information that makes one business unique from all others. It encompasses materials, products, services, processes, equipment, operations, and more. Supervisors with a deep understanding of their work can identify opportunities for improvement and guide their teams to success.

•  Knowledge of Responsibilities: Every company has its own policies, regulations, rules, agreements, schedules, and organizational structure. Supervisors who understand these responsibilities can direct their team effectively and coordinate with other areas of the company.

•  Skill in Instructing: Supervisors must have the ability to train and instruct their team effectively. With this skill, supervisors can reduce the number of defects, rejects, and rework, leading to higher quality products and fewer accidents.

•  Skill in Improving Methods: This skill involves analyzing each operation to eliminate, combine, rearrange, and simplify the details of the job, leading to more efficient use of resources and higher production levels.

•  Skill in Leading: The ability to lead effectively is essential for any supervisor. By setting clear expectations, providing direction and support, and fostering a positive work environment, supervisors can motivate their team to achieve individual and team goals.

By displaying this poster in your workplace, you can remind supervisors of these key elements and help them develop the skills needed to succeed in their role. The benefits of using this poster include:

•  Improved productivity: By developing skills in instructing and improving methods, supervisors can lead their teams to higher production levels and lower error rates.

•  Increased motivation: By developing strong leadership skills, supervisors can create a positive work environment and motivate their team to achieve individual and team goals.
