CEO

The CEO is appointed by the MB and is accountable for implementing the strategic policy decisions of the MB. The CEO accomplishes his or her duties by hiring and directing senior staff in the planning, organizing and controlling activities of the organization.
The CEO is accountable to the entire MB. All authority delegated to staff flows through the CEO so that all authority and accountability of IHTSDO staff rests with the CEO. The individual performance of the IHTSDO staff remains the prerogative of the CEO and his or her subordinates.
The CEO will not perform, allow, or cause to be performed any act that is unlawful or not in keeping with accepted business and professional ethics, as judged by the prudent person standard.

Heads of Section and Management Team

The CEO manages various heads of section, each of whom manages a Line of Business. Some but not all Lines of Business have other IHTSDO employees. Collectively the CEO and Heads of Section make up the Management Team.
