Boss

The Boss, also known as the Don in crime families, is the leader of a criminal organization. Bosses, being the head of a family or gang, usually reign as dictators. While the structures of street gangs can vary, they usually involve a boss commanding a set of lieutenants who are in turn in charge of the soldiers.

A crime family's structure is much more organized and the boss controls a variety of subordinates; these are the capos, the soldiers and the enforcers. The boss receives a cut of every operation taken on by every member of the organization.
