I have a suggestion for *Autocrat*
How about Mayor. After all, that essetntially is that person's function.
They just do it on a more temporary basis than a period or medern mayor.
They are *in charge* but NOT the rulers. The job of a mayor/autocrat is
to facilitate and organise, right? We could start using it by listing
them as
John Doe
Mayor(formely know as Autocrat)
A start?
