I personally like the coordinator title.  Anybody can be a supervisor (as in "she's my supervisor" or "she's the copy room supervisor"). But to be a coordinator, you would be multi-tasking, or coordinating a lot of efforts for possibly a lot of people.  To me a coordinator not only "supervises" but "directs", "plans", and "participates in" a lot of activities. I'm drawing from my own experience. I was once an Administrative Coordinator for an engineering firm of 60. I supervised a staff of 5 (a receptionist, 2 word processing secretaries, a librarian, and a student clerk) and coordinated the work load for 50 engineers between all 6 of us.  I also reported directly to the 3 principals of the firm, handling all their correspondence, special assignments, etc.  Most days were HECTIC but the title definitely fit the job description.
