Chairperson
A chairperson, also commonly referred to as the chairman, chairwoman or simply chair, holds a pivotal position in the structure of many organisations, ranging from corporate entities to academic institutions, and indeed in not-for-profit organisations.
The role and responsibilities of a chairperson, while varying somewhat depending on the specific regulatory and organisational context, fundamentally embody leadership, governance, and oversight functions designed to steer the organisation towards achieving its mission, goals, and objectives.
