A board of directors is chosen for a year at a time in the organisation’s autumn meeting, where all members of the organisation are invited to vote. Board members do not differ from other members beside their obligation to fulfill operations required by law and the operative plan of the organisation. In Linkki, members acting in administrative roles or as directors of teams are members of the board.
Operatives are members of the organisation’s teams, commonly tasked with a specific role within said team. Operatives have no legal responsibility or obligations within the organisation.
