Our team has what we call project managers. We have one head project manager and two others, so they as a group lead us. I mean, one person couldn't be at three places at once, so there couldn't be just one. But they can also check each other. :)

Well, we have a team captain, but it is only a title, although she is one of the most active members. The leader is whoever steps up and leads.

maybe you should call your team leader a team figure head, because the team is a democracy and one person cannot decide on what to do they come up with ideas and them presents them to the team so they can get the teams consent to put the idea into action

I was called the "Team Captain" this year, and that's what we use on letters or stationery sent by me. However, other common names (as you can see from my profile title) are "Student Leader" and "President." Our team constitution stipulated that the election is held for the "Team Captain," which is defined to be identical to "FIRST Student Leader" and "Club President." The multiple names for this position were made in order to:
(1) make sure the 'club' is actually a TEAM (hence "captain")
(2) abide by our school's 'Club' regulations - we must have a President
(3) identify who is designated in the FIRST Team Registration form as Student Leader

This year, all the team's final decisions went through me, the Captain. We also had "Directors" for each group (animation, PR, robot build/design). These Directors (Vincent for PR, David for Animation, and Me for Robot Build/Design) would delegate tasks to their groups and communicate their group's needs to the Captain. We also had a Assistant Captain, William - but this position is only active after our last competition is over and we hold elections for next year's captain (i.e. the Captain-elect for the next year is also the Assistant Captain for the current year). Generally, a Captain is either elected by students or appointed by the mentors, whichever is appropriate for that year, and then remains Captain until s/he graduates. All of these students make up the "Leadership Council." Next year, some students want to keep the Captain final-in-command, others want to increase the power of the Leadership Council, but the Council-elect members seem to be working well together anyway, and the ones who argue about such things aren't on the Council.

But in joking, we also call our various Leadership Council members "general," "comrade," "dictator," "supreme ruler," even the "head Fajita" (but that one's only for me :cool: )

Our team calls me the Team Lead because I oversee everyone, of course that seems like a big job until you take a look at our roster which has 8 names on it 7 students and 1 adult including myself. 3 of the student members are leaving this year though, which will make us a team of 5 :eek:

The last one was the "Fearless Leader" or FL..... :rolleyes:
He just graduated and I'm replacing him. Gotta decide what to go with now. I actually kinda like Commodore. Maybe Commander, or Admiral or something.
