I don’t think I understand… why will not the example number 2 given of the doc page work for you? You can order the entries in the exact order that you want them to be displayed.

Example:

Assuming ID for:
President = 5
Vice President = 401
Secretary = 10
Historian = 36
Trustee = 66

[connections id='5,401,10,36,66' order_by='id|SPECIFIED']

The above shortcode would order them exactly in order as listed in the id shortcode option.
