Who Will Fill Your Shoes?
Skilled Supervisors Make Better Decisions ~ Give Your Supervisors APPA's Toolkit

As you know well, the educational facilities workplace is being transformed by increased competition, advancing technology, changing values, and a global economy. These changes have created new possibilities as well as vulnerabilities, and require supervisors who are willing and able to transform themselves to meet and adapt to each challenge. The traditional role of the supervisor/manager is no longer adequate. The new business environment demands leadership.  APPA’ s Supervisor’s Toolkit has been specifically designed to meet the needs of up-and-coming facilities professionals. It is a structured, open-ended, and pragmatic approach designed to help supervisors realize both personal and professional growth.
