Many transmissions have fluids that are cooled using the same process that your engine fluids use - the radiator system. Transmission Fluid is special in many ways. When you first start your car, the fluid is not yet warm. Many transmission systems share the cooling system with your car, so if it is running hot, your transmission fluid will suffer. It could also simply be that your transmission is low in fluids. In any case, your fluids are probably the source of the problem. Whether low or just getting hot for one reason or another. They need to be replaced and the transmission fluid and cooling systems need to be checked. This usually means that the fluids, filters, seals and possibly other components inside the transmission need to be replaced.

What causes a transmision to slip?
I'll assume you mean an automatic. If so, there are friction plates inside the transmission that get worn out and just like old sand paper gets smooth and doesn't do it's job very well, the friction plates get smooth and don't grip anymore, causing the transmission to slip. In the possible case it is a standard transmission, it isn't the transmission, it's the clutch slipping.
