Top Management

If possible can you kindly help clarify a definition in the ISO 9001:2015 standard for Top Management. What is Top Management for a company? Is it the board of directors - or is Top Management considered the highest level in an organization? What do most companies use their board of directors or other asTop Management?

ISO 9000:2015, the standard about vocabulary, defines top management as a person or group who commands and controls an organization at the highest level. So, each organization should consider what is, in their own case, the highest level. In a small organization, top management can be the owner. In a big corporation, top management can be a member of the board, nominated to be the top authority about the quality management system.
