French translation:la direction (et les responsables)
Explanation:
I think you can shorten it and just use "la direction" but if you wanted to include supervision, what this really means is "the collective managers" and "the collective supervisors." La direction works for this usage of management but for supervision I would just translate it as "supervisors" ==> "les responsables."
