| What Experts Say About The Supervision Solution |
“John Roulet makes an important contribution when he views leadership as a systematic process. Good
leaders provide visions, teach values, demand accountability and hundreds of other intuitive behaviors. A
management system provides a framework to encourage such behaviors – building a vision is an
opportunity to build an executive team; conducting the monthly performance review is an opportunity to
teach and reinforce values. Leaders need a system to focus their actions. In The Supervision Solution the
author provides a practical guide for supervisors to create and use such a system on a day-to-day basis.”
David P. Norton
Author, The Balanced Scorecard
“Management science is constantly changing and improving. John Roulet has done a great service for the
practicing manager by translating current science into a brief, user-friendly manual with a how-to approach.”
Pierce J. Howard, PhD.
Author, Owners Manual for the Brain (3rd Ed)

information, tools and methods to transform supervisors into real business leaders in a short amount of
time.”

the military. With Roulet’s book, they will stand a chance. Each chapter brims with actions that supervisors

in and week out.”
