executive management
Senior corporate leadership
Executive management refers to the highest-ranking leaders in an organization—the CEO, CFO, COO, and similar positions responsible for major strategic decisions.
Distinguished from middle management, executive management sets company direction rather than implementing day-to-day operations: Executive management approved the merger.
The term often appears in corporate governance discussions and organizational charts.
