The term "chairman" originates from the combination of "chair," referring to a seat of authority, and "man," denoting a person in that role. Historically, the term was used to describe the person who presided over meetings or organizations, often implying a male figure, though it has become more gender-neutral in modern usage. The role typically involves leading discussions, making decisions, and ensuring that meetings run smoothly. The concept dates back to the early days of parliamentary procedures and formal organizations.
