Experienced managers usually oversee project teams or a larger department with multiple teams. Their role shifts from direct supervision to problem-solving, implementing change, continuous improvement, and innovation.

Experienced managers are responsible for analyzing performance and implementing strategies aligned with broader organizational goals. They encourage reflective practices, promote feedback loops, and implement systems that allow teams to assess their successes and challenges.
