Second of all, the supervisor defines means by which the tactical objectives are implemented at departmental level.
The organizing function is represented at departmental level, first of all, by the organization of human resource working there. This refers to regulating employee's time off and to setting the schedules during which employees have to work. Second of all, there is the organization of activities that needs to be considered. This may refer to allocating the correct information to students and doing the course revisions in a timely manner.
Directing includes key actions such as delegating responsibilities and, most of all, deciding who has to do what in the department. As a middle route between the upper management and the employees, the supervisor needs to ensure that the staff understands and applies the directions received from the upper management.
The control function includes the feedback I have mentioned, at a lower level in this case. Indeed, the supervisor needs to monitor the activity of the department, for example the phone activity, so that the students are not on hold for a long period of time, or the activity and efficiency of the employees.

In close connection with the organizing function, task prioritization represents the best way to ensure that the job gets done in time.
In terms of organizing, prioritization again represents a priority. Additionally, the organization function manifests itself at position level to include organization in folders and on computer of all files, data and information about each student in part, information that may be easily accessed when needed.
The directing function is less evident in this case, mainly because the employee generally accomplishes tasks that are set rather than imposes over others his own. However, at an individual level, the directing function refers to motivation elements that any employee can promise himself in order to accomplish what he has proposed himself to do.
As for the controlling function, at an individual, positional level this refers to a constant feedback at this level, checking that the planned schedule is respected and that the work is being performed efficiently and correctly.
