A Study of Subordinate Views and Perceptions Regarding the Quality of Supervisory Actions and Attributes.

Abstract

The perceptions of a subordinate concerning the quality of the actions and attributes of a supervisor, have a strong potential to influence the productivity of the subordinate. It is important, therefore, for a supervisor to be aware of, and to understand the subordinate perceptions regarding supervisory quality. The primary objective of this thesis is the development of a normative profile of the high quality supervisor, which is comprised of the supervisory attributes and actions which are highly acclaimed by subordinates. The fulfillment of this objective is directed toward providing current and potential supervisors with a reference aimed at providing the awareness and understanding of subordinate perceptions.
