directive supervision

Directive supervision is a structured supervisory approach where a supervisor provides clear, detailed guidance and specific instructions to a team member about how to perform tasks. It involves close oversight, with frequent check-ins and direct oversight to ensure tasks are completed correctly and efficiently. This method is often used when tasks are complex or new, requiring high levels of supervision to ensure standards are met, and to support learning and development. It emphasizes guidance and control from the supervisor to ensure desired outcomes are achieved effectively.
