Employee Supervision towards Organization Productivity
1.0 Introduction
The working title of the study is initially drafted as - Employee Supervision towards Organization Productivity. Supervision involves the day-to-day operation of the business therefore acts as a bridge between management and employees. The ability of the supervisors to motivate, lead and implement organization’s policies effectively and fairly is critical to the individual growth of the employees which in turn is critical to the overall success of the organization. Nonetheless, supervisors also have the power to influence how the employees will feel about the organization as a whole. Supervisors could be considered as the representatives of the employees; through them, the concerns, attitudes and complaints of the employees are voiced out for the top management to hear.
As such, there is the need for effective employee supervision as it directly affects productivity. It is the goal of the supervision to ensure that the goals regarding work output are achieved. When supervision is not properly implemented, this could lead to disconnected employees and dysfunctional management at the operational level, affecting and disrupting the spontaneity of organization to achieve growth. The study will explore how effective employee supervision affects the productivity of the organization. The key question that will be answered is - how critical is employee supervision in maximizing the organization’s productivity?
Other research questions to be given answer to are:
1) What are the benefits and advantages of effective employee supervision to the overall productivity of the organization?
2) What are the elements of employee supervision that makes it a precursor to organizational productivity?
3) To what extent does effective employee supervision relates to organizational productivity?

3.0 Research Methodology
The research strategy that the study will utilize is the descriptive method. A descriptive research intends to present facts concerning the nature and status of a situation, as it exists at the time of the study (Creswell, 1994). It is also concerned with relationships and practices that exist, beliefs and processes that are ongoing, effects that are being felt, or trends that are developing. In addition, such approach tries to describe present conditions, events or systems based on the impressions or reactions of the respondents of the research (Creswell, 1994). This research is also cross-sectional because of limited time. This research is a study of a particular phenomenon (or phenomena) at a particular time. (Saunders et al, 2003) Accordingly, cross-sectional studies often employ the survey strategy, and they may be seeking to describe the incidence of a phenomenon or to compare factors in different organizations.
In this study, primary and secondary research will be both incorporated. The reason for this is to be able to provide adequate discussion for the readers that will help them understand more about the issue and the different variables that involve with it. The primary data for the study will be represented by the survey results that will be acquired from the respondents. On the other hand, the literature reviews to be presented in the second chapter of the study will represent the secondary data of the study. The secondary sources of data will come from published contents from books, journals, magazines and newspapers and online databases.
