There is a "Plan B" in reserve that provides for the [[Board]] to appoint a true [[Executive Director]] to assume all power and authority of the Board save his hiring , compensation, and amendment of the [[By-Laws]]. A draft of an implementing By-Law has been drafted, and would require member approval. The challenge here would be to find a suitable candidate, as such a role would move Consuls in the direction opposite of their desires. Considering they take some of the blame for the Society's recent decline, they suggest that a different candidate would likely be preferable.
Consuls feel that this plan, especially if one of them is to be named Executive Director, is the worst possible answer short of dissolving the Society.
