A Brief Overview
Plans, organizes, leads and directs the staff and operations of one or more major programs or functions within Supply Chain, as assigned by the Director, including overseeing and trouble-shooting all facets, including distribution of supplies and inventory management. This is a multi-incumbent managerial job class with substantial responsibility for the exercise of independent judgment in interviewing, selecting and training subordinates, assigning work, developing work procedures, establishing work schedules, monitoring and evaluating the work performed by subordinates, and disciplining subordinates. Management is the process of orchestrating the effective and efficient accomplishment of critical activities through others' performance and supervising employees who perform work in the activities managed. It includes the authority for planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, and controlling activities and resources. Effective management requires systems thinking (the "big picture" context of the issue being addressed; interconnectedness with other issues not readily apparent; consideration of potential ramifications of actions and decisions; how potential effects should reasonably alter the plan of action; what players need to be included or informed). Functions and programs assigned to Managers-Supply Chain are subject to change.
