Three Myths of Supervision

Jennifer Crane, Quinnipiac University

Whether you supervise full time professionals, paraprofessionals,or student organizations you probably find yourself in situations where you need to give constructive feedback of some kind. This article focuses on giving feedback to others regarding their job performance for the purposes of their own development. All too often when we begin to prepare to deliver this feedback, we fall into the typical practices of supervision; giving good news with bad news, taking some of the ownership on ourselves, and setting very high expectations for our staff. This article will challenge these “easy” ways out of supervision and help supervisors to provide feedback from a different perspective.

Reasons We Should All Give

Kyle Audette, Marlboro College

I am a member of NEACUHO and if you are reading this article, then the chances are pretty high that you are one too. Being a part of something bigger than you is why we tend to congregate around an idea, belief, or cause. The annual conference is probably the most familiar example of this: colleagues from various institutions traveling to one destination to learn from one another, exchanging ideas,becoming re-energized, and to catch up with (or meet new) friends. By doing so, we give our time to the organization and each other. It isn’t much to ask when the rewards vastly outweigh the effort, don’t you think?
