Students of supervision will appreciate the application approach found in "Supervision: Concepts and Skill-Building". As Samuel Certo presents concepts in the text, he shows their practical use in the workplace, giving students a full understanding of a supervisor's critical role while showing students the resources they will need to be a successful supervisor. A strong skills focus encourages students to apply what they have learned, thereby developing their critical thinking skills and helping them gain a greater understanding of key concepts. -- From publisher's description.
