Conducting a meeting

[Guest thomas kernan]

we have a small corporation,  6 stockholders,  the presidency rotates every year.

 

after the president calls the meeting to order can he turn the meeting over to the secretary to act as the chair for the rest of the meeting?

The secretary is more familiar with the rules of the meeting along with the bylaws of the corporation

[J. J.]

With the consent of the majority and there is no vice president, yes (pp, 452-3).

[J. J.]

Even if there is a vice president, and he choses not to preside, the secretary can be elected; the rules can also be suspended to premit this.
