Board directors
Primus inter pares: the chair is inside the board, not above it.
Primus inter pares is one of the names this practice works under. First among equals means the person who opens the meeting is still one of the directors. The order of speaking is set so the chair does not collect the decision before the others have put a step on the table.
The same room has to hold more than one distance. Person to person, when two directors disagree. Human to human, when the disagreement is about people rather than a motion. Business to business, when the step leaves the firm and meets another firm. The specialties are written that way on purpose: P2P, H2H, and B2B are not three products. They are three distances in one sitting.
A board session in this practice ends with the steps that were allowed, the steps that were refused, and the name of the director who will carry each allowed step.
