International Coordinator/About
Duties of the International Coordinator
As per the MFI Constitution, the International Coordinator's position is outlined as follows:
MFI International Coordinator (IC)/Force Admiral (FADM):
The FADM is the head of the CC and is in charge of all meetings of the CC, unless absent or delegated. The FADM is charged with ensuring that all information pertaining to organization policy changes is delivered to the CC members in a timely and reasonable fashion and shall serve as a reference for all CC members and organization members. The FADM is by virtue the "Commander-in-Chief" and upon taking office, the Flag of the Force is transferred to the ship upon which the FADM is a member. The FADM is the President of the organization, and is responsible in every way for everything that occurs.
The FADM presides over the entire organization and is responsible for the well being of everyone connected with the organization.
General Everyday Duties
The IC shall remain in good contact with members of the CC on a daily basis; coordinating and authorizing actions of CC members as they may apply to the organization as a whole. The IC shall act as an officer of the CC who is incapacitated or otherwise unable to serve, unless authority is delegated otherwise.
As the overall 'responsiblity bearer' of MFI, the IC should remain up-to-date with the Chief of Operations on Cell readiness and reporting, or lack thereof; and overall morale of the organization. Utilizing communications, including the newly devised, highly classified "ICCD," the IC can easily maintain contact with the leadership of the Maquis, wherever he happens to be.
In many respects, the Office of the International Coordinator is, indeed, very similar to that of an 'elected dictatorship,' or 'Constitutional Monarchy,' depending on your own view point of powers on the International level. Unlike many clubs and organizations, on the International level, the International Coordinator does exactly that -- Coordinates the activities of MFI on the international level, within the limits of the Constitution. This allows for easy administration of the overall organization and provides a smooth command structure over a large, decentralized group.
