If your supervisors aren't comfortable in English, this probably isn't the right fit yet. #### **It's built to be delivered one way, and we don't change it.** Every company gets the same program: eight weeks of 10-minute daily learning and a live coaching session every week, followed by 50 more weeks of support. There's no slower track, no way to customize it, and there is certainly no one-day version. It works beautifully as designed. #### **We don't give your supervisors a script.** Repeatable processes turn people into robots with no personality. Every memorable boss you ever had was good because of who they were as people, not because they followed someone else's script. #### **It's not a cheap program, and we don't discount.** You're working directly with Kevin, not an agency or a team of trainers. Every video your supervisors watch and every weekly call is with him. That means we have only a certain number of clients we can work with at one time. #### **We won't guarantee your results.** Your supervisors have to do the work. And you have to reinforce the work with them. That means talking with your supervisors about what they're learning, not snooping to see if they are actually watching the learning. Remove anyone not doing the work. Nobody gets to skip pulling their weight. #### **Department heads are probably going to object.** Face it, this is not the way you've always done things. That's why we suggest getting your department heads involved in the planning process early. Get their buy-in and support. Make it a team decision. #### **Some supervisors may decide that the role isn't for them.** That's still a win for you. Now you know instead of hoping.   ### Still reading? Then you're probably not looking for a quick fix. You're looking to help create supervisors who can handle problems where they start, get buy-in to safety with their crews, and help you to keep the good people who already work with you. That's great. Because that's the work we do.   [Back to PeopleWork Supervisor](https://www.kevburns.com/supervisors) - About - [Supervisor Training](https://www.kevburns.com/supervisors-old) - [Blog](https://www.kevburns.com/blog) #### © 2026 PeopleWork Align Inc.
