The Training Within Industry (TWI) Job Relations (JR) program teaches supervisors how to evaluate and take proper actions to handle and to prevent people problems. This skill in leading helps the supervisor to improve his ability in working with people.
There are basic principles that, when applied day in and day out, will tend to keep relations smooth and prevent problems from arising. By pointing out the ways that problems do arise one can readily see that preventive action can be taken. This applies particularly in anticipating changes that may not be readily accepted and in sensing changes in output, attitudes, and relationships. However, when problems do arise, there is an organized procedure to handle such problems that helps get better results from the action we take. TWI Job Relations teaches supervisors the four steps for effective leadership.
