Sorry for the late response.
It's less about oversight, and more about what I could do. In my first full-time development job, I was working under a lead developer who was seriously badass at mentoring people and making sure they knew what they had to do (though I don't think he realized it - it was his first time being promoted to a leadership position!). To this day, when I'm feeling stressed out at work, I'll think "What would Rob have advised me to do?" and it makes me feel more secure about my decisions.
Junior developers are often really idealistic and ambitious, and I would like to be in a position where I could reward and facilitate that instead of crushing it (which happens all too often).
