For operational meetings (which will be most of the meetings) the Operations Coordinator has executive power, i.e. gets to make the final decision for issues that directly concern the running of upcoming programs. A participatory management style is encouraged, but if there is no agreement among the Operations Team members, the final say is with the Operations Coordinator when it comes to ensure that preparations for upcoming programs are made.

 All circles have a budget and should limit their expenses according to their budget. However, unexpected situations might arise that require unbudgeted expenses. If an unbudgeted request by a circle is brought to the Operations Team, the Operations Coordinator can ask for consent from all members of the Operations Team and if there is consent, the Operations Coordinator can approve this request if it does not exceed the budget for the Operations Team. The yearly budget of the Operations Team for such expenses is $500. This provision will allow the Operations Team to act quickly if needed, without first having to seek the approval of the Council. All such unbudgeted expenses will need to be reported to the Council by the Operations Coordinator, and the Council will review them at their next meeting.
