No, I meant SELECTED, after the BoD members are elected, they select
and appoint their Chair from outside, and this chair serves at the
pleasure of the BoD.
As for nooot being able to do anything with more than 10 or less than
100 members (or a board), I am referring to the obeservation that as
soon as you have more then ten board or committee members, things get
more complicated with need for staff and support funtions and such,
until you get to a full size with 100 people involved with supporting
the BoD;-)...
~Thjsi is indeed rather tongue in cheek, but I have found that any
such board or committee has problems arranging meetings and getting
work done if it has more than 10 members.
So, I am biased toward seeking ways to cap the number of members at
10.
