Shareholders and directors have two completely different roles in a company. The shareholders (also called members) own the company by owning its shares and the directors manage it. Unless the articles say so (and most do not) a director does not need to be a shareholder and a shareholder has no right to be a director.
An LLC can have a board of directors, but it's not required. LLCs are governed by their members, who can appoint a board of directors to manage the LLC's business affairs.
