Rob Boudrie Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Pretty much, yes -- which actually mimics the corporate world, where company presidents often don't have a great deal of power, but rather implement what their Board of Directors tells them to.... The Nationals is one area where the USPSA president has a lot of authority that does not flow from the board. Under the bylaws, all nationals matters are the responsibility of the president. While the Prez generally informs the board about contact negotiations, and gets board approval before multi year contracts, the venue choice is, in the end, his responsibility. Ditto for decisions regarding the format - all divisions in one nationals vs. two nationals; what divisions in each if two nationals; etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JThompson Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) You think that the prez doesn't have a lot of power in our sport? Nats and Steel plus,,, umm "committees" I would say the prez has a great deal of power. I don't want to debate about direction and or leadership just say'n the role of prez is far from a figurehead and indeed carries a great deal of power and a pretty nice stipend.
