What types of mayors are there?

There are generally three types of mayors: strong mayors, weak mayors, and ceremonial mayors. Strong mayors have significant executive powers, including budgetary control and the ability to unilaterally make decisions, often resembling a CEO. Weak mayors have limited authority, with more power vested in the city council or other governmental bodies, requiring collaboration for decision-making. Ceremonial mayors, often found in smaller towns or cities, primarily perform symbolic duties and lack substantial governing power.
