INTERPRETING YOUR SCORES

0-5: Your employees feel very disconnected from you and the
goals that are set for them. They feel disrespected and are
at risk of disengaging. Your supervisory style is significantly
reducing the productivity and efficiency of your depart-
ment. Begin improving your skills in this area immediately.
In addition to the suggestions in this chapter, consider iden-
tifying a mentor skilled in this area who could offer advice
and guidance toward your development.
