outmanage

Supervise more effectively

To outmanage is to manage more effectively than a competitor or opponent.

The term appears most often in sports, where a coach outmanages the opposing coach through superior strategy, substitutions, or in-game adjustments: Their manager completely outmanaged ours in the playoffs.

It extends to business contexts where one executive or team demonstrates superior management skills against rivals.
