It is an old saying that the knowledge from experience is far more relevant than the 
knowledge from books. Books make you see the lines only whereas a teacher can take you 
beyond those lines in to a practical world.

19) What are some important qualities of a good supervisor (boss)? Use specific details 
and examples to explain why these qualities are important. 
 
(a) It's surely not so easy to be a good supervisor because you have to manage so many 
things and to deal with a lot of people, including your employees. In my opinion, the most 
important qualities a good supervisor should have are discretion, finesse and impartiality. 
Since a supervisor is usually responsible for a company, project, or business, etc., he will 
certainly meet many difficulties and problems and require him to make correct decisions. 
If a supervisor has not discretion and hesitate to solve the problems, he, of course, can't 
deal with them well, and he maybe lose some chances of business or cause greater damage 
because of his hesitation. 
Besides discretion, I think a good supervisor should have finesse and impartiality. Usually 
a supervisor will supervise several employees. It is common there is some conflict of 
interest among the employees. How to make the employees get along with one another 
well is a task for a good supervisor. Generally speaking, if a supervisor treats his 
employees impartially, he can reduce or avoid the conflict of interest among the employees 
and make them work hard. Jinny was a supervisor in my company, when there was a 
chance of promotion in her department, she gave the chance to a employee who worked 
very hard, not to her relative who also worked in her department. All employees said 
nothing bad about the promotion but respected her. 
As a supervisor, a person has to not only do his work well, but also manage his company 
or team well. In order to be a good supervisor, the most important qualities he should have 
are discretion, finesse and impartiality.
(B) I am a person who sincerely believes in Elton Mayo's Human Resource approach to 
management. Acoording to him the key assets of an organization are it's employees. 
Hence I personally believe that one of the most important quality that boss should possess 
should be to guarantee employee satisfaction. 
An organization is as good as it's employees. Hence the supervisor should have the 
knack of selecting the best possible employees. He should be able to identify talent when 
he sees it. He should create a good working atmosphere for his employees so that they can 
give their best. 
He should also offer appropriate remuneration packages to keep his employees motivated. 
He should follow an open door policy wherein the employees are encouraged to come 
forward with their suggestions and grievances. There should not be a barrier of any sort 
between the employee and the boss.
