What does your team call its "leader"?

What does your team call its student head? Just curious.
We have used captain for all up until this year, where we now have a "commodore". She's also occasionally referred to a Czar, or Czarina. And of course, we call her captain as well.

We have two student leads, but right now we're in the process of re-structuring our team, so maybe I can suggest Comodore, it sounds pretty sweet..

We don't have a team leader. We have a leadership team.

[Conor Ryan]

we currently like the idea of Capitano, but i'm pushing for Kingpin, Skipper, Honcho, Overlord, or "Hey You with the Face". You can have a lot of fun with this

[Freddy Schurr]

Our team has a captain and a co-captain but with renovation of 204, who knows what going to happen next year.

[spears312]

Last year we had 'Major Tom', this coming year it should end up being 'King Heatwave'.

w00t, post 100 (after over 1 year)

This past year, we restructured and made the leader the Executive Director. But he ended up not doing much so we are dropping the job, divereting all leadership to the Vice Presidents. But the Board of Directors (aka mentors) have surpreem power and can over rule if they want. Maybe we should call the VPs the Triumverant (sp?), or quad-umverant...?

It's officially the office of the President, but I prefer to be called Il Duce or Supreme Dictator. Either will suffice.

No, but seriously we really don't have one lead person. Somehow the team kinda just meshes together in an odd system of checks and balances. Of course, there are a few people that are more of a leader to a team than others.

Same way my team is.. We have selected subteam captains.. They really became pointless, because some teams only had 1-2 kids and didn't really need a captain or anything, or like our construction team had 2 students really stand out do most of the major work on the robot, and because the captain wasnt one of those two students he really didn't know what to say during the captain/advisor meetings every week.. We had no 1 leader except at the compeitions we had the team captain (me) and head inspection student, and we were really just given titles to sign the inspection papers and that was it.
