Abstract
The Supervisor’s Interactive Model of Organizational Relationships (SIMOR) integrates two models addressed in the leadership literature and then highlights the importance of relationships. The Supervisor’s Interactive Model of Organizational Relationships combines the modified Hersey and Blanchard model of situational leadership, the Glickman Developmental Supervision Model, and considers relationships within the organization to form a more comprehensive picture of the supervisee’s supportive and supervisory needs. This model provides supervisors with a more realistic and useful framework to guide their supportive interactions with supervisees.
