write one similarity and one difference between the commission and council-manager systems of government.

Council-Manager System

This form of government works similarly to a company or corporation that is listed on the stock exchange. In this system a governing body is organized that in most cases we know under the name of "municipal council". Legislative functions are assigned to a person named as the "manager". His role is similar to that of a company director and is expected to manage the board of directors. It is also common for another person to be assigned the role of "mayor", especially in a symbolic manner and if compared to the operation of a company, he would serve as a non-executive president.

Commission System

In this system of government people choose by vote different persons  (commissioners) to work in a specific group or board of government. Each one of these elected persons assumes a responsibility according to the needs. A commissioner can be appointed as "president" or "mayor" and his role is to lead the meetings. This group or commission has legislative and executive functions.
