====== 10. Standing Committees and Task Forces ======
 

===== 10.1 Purpose =====


Committees and task forces must be given clear purposes, deadlines and, as appropriate, ending dates prior to appointment of members.

===== 10.2 Presidential Leadership Team =====
 

The Presidential Leadership Team consists of the GSF President, President-Elect, Vice President, Immediate Past President, and Executive Director.  The Presidential Leadership Team serves as the interim governing body between meetings of the GSF Board of Directors. Members of the Presidential Leadership Team do not represent their association or country, and are considered an unaffiliated leader of the global organization during their term of service. Members of the Presidential Leadership Team must be members in good standing of a member speaking association for the duration of their term.

The Presidential Leadership Team may vote to change policy after notifying the GSF Board of Directors that a policy change is under consideration. Financial decisions that result in expenses of over $5,000 USD may be made by the Presidential Leadership Team after notifying the Board of Directors that a decision that would impact the expense budget at over $5,000 USD is under consideration.  Budget decisions resulting in less than $5,000 USD do not need notification.

The result of policy and financial decisions will be distributed to the GSF Board of Directors.  Bylaw changes reside under the authority of the GSF Board of Directors.
