An employe who trains, assigns the work and reviews the work of other professional employes and which may also include technical employes. This function would last only as long as the project takes. An employe can be a project leader and a team member for another project simultaneously. Positions receive specific guide- lines and instructions on work assignments and the supervisor determines the priorities and provides clearly defined objectives. Work assignments are established by the supervisor on a short or long term basis as the employe progresses.
Positions initially exercise little discretion in decision-making.
Over time positions at this level make higher level con- tacts without the supervisors' direction and make decisions on items of a narrower scope and impact. The work assignments the employe is expected to complete include the full range and scope of their specific program duties. The majority of the assignments are complex. These positions work to implement the depart- ments customer service and partnership concepts. Positions at this level make decisions independent of supervisory oversight, with the work being reviewed after the decisions have been made.
