Hi Sylvia,
To ensure success in a situation where little direction or influence from supervisors is given, it would be best to create a system through which communication between all parties is seamless. For example, using a shared Google Doc would allow for all individuals to check in with current projects. This would ensure that the work done is on task and completed in a timely manner. A weekly summary of the work completed can also help to make sure that your direction is in line with the vision of higher ups. Having this correspondence through email can also prevent miscommunication because there is a clear source to reference for past conversations. A third component to this system of transparency can include all parties having access to a written schedule. Creating attainable goals will help you to complete tasks on time, and hold you accountable for deadlines.
Best,
