So you want to promote to Supervisor? Are you sure? This goes for Police Supervisors of both sworn and civilian divisions. Take a good look at yourself and your agency, and if you really want to be in the position of power. Because, with power, comes responsibility. The problems of each and every one of your employees, becomes YOUR problem. You can no longer worry only about yourself. You have to be pro-active and monitor the actions and potential liabilities of those who you are in charge of.
This can be overwhelming, but it can be some of the most exciting years of your life.
To become a supervisor, one must be educated, experienced, and have the motivation, determination, and dedication to make changes. Becoming a supervisor begins the DAY one becomes employed. To become a supervisor is not preparing for the interview, but preparing for the postion.
