Director, General Manager, etc. Explication : Different companies and institutions have different hierarchies and use different nomenclatures. Where I work (10,000 employees), managers report to directors, but that is not the case in every company. In some cases, managers report to general managers, while in other cases, they may report to a vice-president or a chief officer (chief financial officer, chief marketing officer, chief technology officer, etc.). "Leader" is a generic term that may or may not have any hierarchical or executive implications, depending on the context. I hope my answer does not sound evasive. My intention was to address the topic in a very general way, because the question sounded rather general in scope. Fuad common usage |

superior Explication : If you don't want to translate the title but just need to refer to the person in question (keeping the idea of hierarchy), "superior" might fit the bill... as in "the manager's superior" Otherwise, Faud's suggestion is full of titles that could fit the bill. |

supervisor or direct supervisor Explication : It would help if we had more of the sentence to go on. If the phrase states directeur/superieur hierarchique, then it means this person's direct supervisor (the person ranking just above). The supervisor's title therefore changes in relation to the subject's title. Hope this helps. own knowledge |

Additional suggestion: senior manager Explication : To follow up on my earlier comments: In companies where the hierarchy is elaborate enough for one manager to report to a higher manager, the lower management rank is usually called "middle management," while the higher rank is called "senior management." the higher manager may then be called a "senior manager," but this usually is not a title, but merely a description of rank in the company. I hope this sheds more light on the subject. Fuad common usage |
