    The Board of Directors

    The Function of the Board

    The Board oversees the management of USA Taekwondo and its affairs, but it does not manage USA Taekwondo. USA Taekwondo's Board represents the interests of the United States taekwondo community and its athletes by providing USA Taekwondo with policy, guidance and strategic direction. The Board will focus on long-term objectives and impacts rather than day to day management, empowering the CEO to manage a staff-driven organization with effective Board oversight. The paramount duty of the Board is to select a well-qualified and ethical Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and to diligently oversee the CEO in the operation of USA Taekwondo. In addition, the Board performs the specific functions as outlined in the USAT Bylaws: HERE
