A list of 104 leadership team names written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-02 and filed in five groups by the body that leads: a senior team, a student council, a board or committee, a program cohort, and a light-hearted set. Every name is built on a word of leading: a council, a board, a chair, a helm, a compass, a quorum or a cohort. None was taken from a company, a program, a course, an author or a leadership method, and any match with a real group is a coincidence. The meeting words (quorum, motion, minutes, bylaws, chair) were looked up on 2026-10-02 in Wikipedia's Board of directors and Student council articles (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_of_directors and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student_council), text under CC BY-SA 4.0. Compared by script the same day with every other list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark or business register. The page is a list of names and gives no management advice. Licence: own work
