On an international basis, ISKCON is managerially divided into different zones. A senior, more experience devotee, oversees each of those zones. He has a position of a Governing Body Commissioner, GBC officer. While some zones have only one GBC officer, due to size and manifold responsibilities, some zones have two or even more co-GBC officers. Comprised of all the GBC officers, GBC is the highest executive authority in ISKCON. For assessing and planning the future activities of the society, the GBC meats once yearly, in ISKCON’s main spiritual headquarters in Sri Dhama Mayapura, West Bengal India.
