What is the role of the Executive Council?

• A. To oversee fundraising campaigns across chapters.
• B. To manage membership records and dues collection.
• C. To oversee day-to-day operations between General Conventions under the direction of the General President.
• D. To coordinate chapter advisory boards.

Answer: (C)

The Executive Council is the ongoing leadership arm that keeps the organization functioning between General Conventions. Under the General President’s direction, it oversees everyday operations, ensures policies and decisions from the General Convention are carried out, and coordinates programs across the chapters and committees so the organization runs smoothly during the interval between conventions. This focus on daily governance and implementation under the president’s guidance is what sets it apart from tasks like fundraising, member records and dues management, or coordinating chapter advisory boards, which involve different functions or units within the organization.
