Från Barron\'s Business Guide, 2nd Ed. (Jack. P. Friedman):
Principal:
1. One who owns or will use property. For example, the principals to the lease are the landlord and the tenant; principals to a sale are the buyer and the seller.
2. One who contracts for the services of an agent or broker; the broker\'s or agent\'s client.
3. Amount of money...etc. (N/A here)
Så med andra ord; det behöver definitivt inte vara en delägare. Jag ser heller inget som föranleder \"verkställande\" i den här titeln ovan. Därför föreslog jag ansvarig chef - som alltså snarare är brett applicerbart än \"right on the button\" i det här sammanhanget.

\"Intressent\" eller \"Representant för..\" tycker jag inte heller aktuella ovan.

styrelseordförande
Here, 'principal' is like the 'principal' (head) of a school
or university or partnership.
The ref below contains this:
"Göran Tidström är auktoriserad revisor och styrelseordförande i Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers Gruppen AB."
Not exactly the same words as 'managing principal', but the same delägare concept - Mr Tidström is first among equals.

I think Sven Petersson\'s suggestion of \"verkställande partner\" is the closest rendering of the English.
My suggestion of \'styrelseordförande\' is not so close, but conveys the status.
