Can you serve as president and also be elected to chair on a committee if selected by the

chairman.Can you chair and do your presidential duties enforcing the right and wrongs

procedures of these different committees selected by the head chairman/

[Edgar Guest]

Nothing in RONR prevents the president of an organization from serving as the chair of a committee (though RONR makes an important exception for the nominating committee which the president should have nothing to do with). Needless to say, when acting as the chair of a committee he's not acting as president of the organization (and vice versa).

 

Since the fundamental role of a president is to preside at (i.e. chair) meetings, the president might make a very good chair. Or not.
