Attention to detail: First Line Supervisors are Metro's eyes and ears in the field. Being able to quickly and accurately record information and maintain records and logs is essential
Communication: First Line Supervisors must be proficient communicators. Communication requirements may include preparing reports, directing and instructing Metro Operators, and communicating both in person and via radio during emergencies
Leadership: First Line Supervisors are often the senior Metro personnel on site. Metro expects them to display confidence, enforce requirements for Operators, and serve as Metro's point of contact for outside agencies
Accountability: First Line Supervisors handle high-impact work at Metro. That work can affect anything from Operator's pay to Metro's ability to provide service. Prospective First Line Supervisors must be ready to take accountability for their mistakes and be open to learning and correction
Decision making: First Line Supervisors will often find themselves in high-stress situations where quick decision making and strong critical thinking skills must be employed. The ability to assess a situation, make decisions, and enact those decisions is a requirement for First Line Supervisors
