Who typically manages a Limited Liability Company?

An LLC is typically managed by its owners, called members, or by managers that the members designate. In a member-managed LLC, all members participate in running the company and making decisions. In a manager-managed LLC, the members appoint one or more managers to handle day-to-day operations, similar to how a board or leadership functions in other business forms but under the LLC framework. The board of directors is a feature of corporations, not LLCs, and governors or shareholders relate to other business structures, not to the standard LLC setup. So the usual answer is that an LLC is managed by its members or by designated managers.
