Executive

Executive can mean:

• Executive (government), a branch of government;
• A functionary in a commercial or non-commercial organisation. The term logically refers to any employee, but often becomes restricted in meaning to any manager, and sometimes especially to a chief executive officer (otherwise known by the acronym CEO) or to some similarly high-ranking office-holder in a corporation.
• In the USA and Canada, a special paper size has the name "executive format".
