Worse, they don’t get a lot of guidance from their bosses before AND after they take that dive. Sound familiar? This is the usual story for a first-level supervisor – the person directly overseeing the personnel who serve customers, make the widgets, or code the software.

If the application is running in PHP or ASP for example, it becomes quite easy.
