Smarter people are great: you can full-heartedly delegate decisions and say "you are the expert, please decide, I trust you".

See yourself as part of the team with the unique position of gathering information from experts, coordinating and depending on your responsibilities care for the well being of the team and the development of the individuals in it.

About tons of priorities: Here I struggle more myself, because I'm not in the position to delegate much of my own work.

What I do: I write down everything (for me it's org-mode, but that's a matter of taste). This includes tasks of others I delegated (in my system marked as WAIT). ~10% of my tasks are marked as high priority.

This waiting thing however drives me mad. Within my team we use a ticketing system and things get done, but I constantly have to do things with ~7 people outside of my department and have to run after them constantly. Even if they have to-do tools where I make them tickets. I'm at ~30 todo items (that's low for me) and ~70 waiting (that's normal).
