All the directors together are the board. They meet in the boardroom.

Non-executive directors are not managers of the company; they are outsiders, often directors of other companies who have particular knowledge of the industry or of particular areas.

The marketing director is the head of marketing, the It director is the head of IT, etc. These people head or head up their departments. Informally, the head of an activity, a department or an organization is its boss.
