How can we accomplish this situation?
Please provide any valuable suggestions.

Every Group has a manager/supervisor field to hold a group to Manager mapping. You cannot have a single field to hold 2 values on the same record. You will have to create a new field, say may be the backup manager or secondary manager and update the scripts wherever the manager comes into the picture, mainly during approvals.

One option would be to create a many-to-many relationship table using group, type (here is where you would specify "manager"), and user. As with a second field on the table, you would need to be sure to reference this m2m table in any scripts or other functionality that looks at gorup managers. This solution is scalable and would allow you to specify multiple managers (could support multiple regions) and different types of roles related to the group.
I hope you find that helpful.
Thanks,
Nick
