ExO
the title given to the highest-ranking officer in the Corporate Sector Authority, the ExO runs the Direx Board. The ExO originally made decisions based on consultation with the Direx Board, but the ExO has recntly been given final authority to act without consulting the Diredx Board. The ExO is chosen from a number of candidates who come from outside the ranks of the Direx Board, thus ensuring that corporations cannot suddnyl gain control of the Direx Board. The candidates usually are selected from the current crop of Viceprexes. The ExO serves until death or a no-confidence vote from the Direx Board which is seconded and ratified.
