Bosses, Supervisors, Managers, etc..

Can you do everything that the people you supervise do (workwise)? In other words - if any one of your employees were out for more than a few days could you step in and do that job in a pinch if you needed to?

Just curious!

Yes, and I used to do it before my promotion, so I'm familiar with it.

yes.
I think cross-training is very important.
I do know some managers that are not able to do what their subordinates do.

Re: Bosses, Supervisors, Managers, etc..

Well I am not working at the moment (home with DS) but in all of my supervisory roles I was able to do the jobs of my subordinates.

I once worked for a director who had NO clue how to do my job or anyone else's. It was such a poorly run department and it ended up getting absorbed into a better-run department.

Re: Bosses, Supervisors, Managers, etc..

Yes I can and I make it a point to refresh myself on certain things every few months because it's not the same when you don't do it on a daily basis.

Re: Bosses, Supervisors, Managers, etc..

No.

I have a team of specialists - graphic designers, instructional designers and trainers - that have very specific skill sets and certifications.

It's my job to set the strategy and direct them in their work, not to be able to do the detail.

I understand what they do and can support them, but I can't DO it.

Re: Bosses, Supervisors, Managers, etc..

For the most part. I would say there's probably one or two things that they do that I couldn't but I'm sure if I was shown how to do it, I would be able to.
