<div class="entry"><p>I do these scratch-pad posts for really narrow audiences, the
rest of you will find them a bit bewildering. Sorry about that. This
one is aimed at the GNSO Council, as we ponder the question "how do we
increase the pool of PDP working-group volunteers?"</p><p>Broadening the bottom of the bottom-up process is a critical need at
ICANN right now. But at least in the part of ICANN where I live (GNSO
policy-making working groups) the conversations that take place are very
nuanced and do require a good deal of background and experience before a
person is going to be an effective contributor to the conversation.</p><p>So I think that we/ICANN need to develop a clearer understanding of
the many different roles that people play as they progress toward
becoming an effective participant in the process. And then put the
resources and process in place to encourage them along the way. This is
my current picture...</p>
<div><a href="http://www.haven2.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Slide1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1661" alt="Slide1" src="http://www.haven2.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Slide1-650x487.jpg" height="487" width="650"></a><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div>
<h3>Roles</h3><p>Here's a starter-kit list of roles that people play. I'm putting them
in pairs because nobody can do this by themselves -- we all need the
help of others as we progress. I've also built a little drawing which
puts these in a never ending circle because we're always turning back
into newcomers as we explore another facet of the organization. I
decided to beat the term "translation" to death in these descriptions. I
think ICANN needs to "translate" what it does for a wide range of
audiences to make it easier for them to participate.</p><p><strong>Newcomer <-> Recruiter</strong></p><p>A newcomer is likely to be just as bewildered by that experience as
most of the rest of us have been. They need a "recruiter" greet them,
welcome them into the flow, translate what's going on into terms they
can understand, find out what their interests and goals are and get them
introduced to a few "guides" who can take them to the next step.</p><p><strong>Explorer <-> Guide</strong></p><p>As the newcomer finds their place, they will want to explore
information and conversations that are relevant to their interests and
they need a "guide" to call on to translate their questions into
pointers toward information or people that they're trying to find.</p><p><strong>Student <-> Teacher</strong></p><p>As the person progresses they need a positive, low-risk way to learn
the skills and knowledge they need in order to be able to contribute.
And, like any student, they need a teacher or two. I've always thought
that we are missing a huge opportunity in the GNSO Constituencies by not
consciously using the process of preparing public comments as a place
for less experienced members to develop their policy-making skills in a
more intimate, less risky environment than a full-blown working-group.
I'd love to see newer members of Constituencies consciously brought into
progressively richer roles in the teams that write public comments for
Constituencies.</p><p><strong>Researcher <-> Expert</strong></p><p>Another person who needs a very specific kind of partner is a person
who comes to ICANN to research -- either to find an answer to a
policy-related question, find the best way to handle a problem or
complaint that they have with a provider, or to discover whether there
is data within the ICANN community that can help with formal academic
research. Again, here is a person with fairly clear questions who needs
help sifting and sorting through all the information that's available
here -- another form of translation, this time provided by a librarian
or an "expert" in my taxonomy. This person may not want to build new
skills, they're just here for answers. But filling that "expert" role
could be a great opportunity for somebody who's already here.</p><p><strong>Teammate <-> Coach</strong></p><p>A person who is experiencing a policy-making drafting-team (e.g.
within a constituency) or working group for the first few times has a <strong>lot</strong>
of things to learn, and many of those things aren't obvious right at
the start. And this person may not feel comfortable asking questions of
the whole group for a wide variety of reasons. They would benefit from a
"coach" -- a person who makes it clear that they are available to
answer *any* question, no matter how small. This person is translating a
sometimes-mysterious team process for a teammate who is learning the
ropes.</p><p><strong>Leader <-> Mentor</strong></p><p>As our person progresses, they eventually take up a leadership role,
and once again could use the help of others to navigate new duties --
yet another form of translation, this time delivered by a mentor who
helps the emerging leader be effective in their chosen role.</p>
<h3>Information</h3><p>I also think there are all kinds of information assets that
participants use and access in different ways depending on what their
role is at the moment. Another kind of translation! <img src="http://www.haven2.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" class="wp-smiley"> Here's another starter-kit list:</p>
<ul>
<li>Organizational structures</li>
<li>Documents</li>
<li>Transcripts</li>
<li>Email archives</li>
<li>Models</li>
<li>Processes</li>
<li>Tools and techniques</li>
<li>Outreach materials</li>
</ul><p>I think there's a gigantic opportunity to make this "career
progression" and "information discovery" easier and more available to
people wanting to participate at the bottom of the bottom-up process.
I'm not sure that there's much need for new technology to do all this --
my thoughts run more toward setting goals, rewarding people who help,
etc. But a dab of cool tech here and there might help...</p></div></div><div><div>On Feb 3, 2014, at 3:12 PM, Klaus Stoll <<a href="mailto:kdrstoll@gmail.com">kdrstoll@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">

<br>
Greetings. I have
now read the report twice and I think this report merits an
extended
reply by the GNSO.<br>
<br>
I will refrain from derisory comments about
the report as far as a I can, only one, the first page looks
like IG
buzzword bingo on steroids and like steroids it replaces
substance
with short term illusions!<br>
<br>
A good example is the first
buzzword "crowdsource". Crowdsource is a good thing, but as
it is used in the report it is just a distraction the real
problem.
The problem of IG in general and of ICANN in particular is not a
lack
of participation, it is not even a question of language and
acronyms<font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size:
11pt" size="2">.
The uncomfortable fact remains true that Cyberspace</font></font><font>
</font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">today
resembles a country where 1% of the population governs 99%
of the
population and 98% of these don’t even know that the 1%
exist! This
represents a real legitimacy problem for all current IG
processes.
</font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">Crowd
sourcing
is only real and legitimate</font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">
if it is based on knowledge that is available to everybody
in
appropriate forms. </font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">Everybody
needs to be able to be in the crowd </font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">and
not just a self-elected elite. “</font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">The
report says: (page4), “For an institution to merit the
peoples
trust, it first has to trust its people”. The people we
are
talking about here is the global Internet user community,
all of
them. Trust can only come when all the people know their
rights and
responsibilities. In the case of IG the responsibility to
inform all
is not simply discharged by awareness campaigns and nice
pictures,
but by demonstrating the relevance of IG to every level of
its user
community. People engage with things only if they are
relevant to
them, awareness is a result of relevance, empowerment and
trust are
the result of trusting the internet users in understanding
the true
significance and deep relevance of IG in all our lives. </font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">(Mikey,
here is I think also part of the answer to your question
regarding
getting people involved into the Wgs, its not the
language, its not
the time, its that we have to find a way to make the WG
topics
relevant to a large number of people. This will not happen
if we wait
that people come to us, we need to get out to them).</font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">
IG institutions </font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">can
only be legitimate and successful if they put the
awareness building
and empowerment at the center of their thinking and doing.
All
governance structures for Cyberspace </font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">need
to be user, not expert group </font></font></font><font><font face="Cambria, serif"><font style="font-size: 11pt" size="2">centric.</font></font></font>
Accountability can only come from the awareness of all what IG
is
accountable for. Transparency in contracts and processes only
makes
sense when all understand what the contracts are about.
Innovation
has to come from informed participation based on relevance not
engineered organizational processes.</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in">I am surprised by the liberal
recommendation by the report of on-line tools that are only
available
to an elite and not the average online user in a developing
country.
Like the whole report, these recommendations reflect a first
world
centered view on IG and technology.
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Are other councilors also disturbed
by
the liberal use in the report of the “ICANN should...” phrase
followed even sometimes by a time line and the clear indication
that
the expectation is on speedy implementation without much
discussion
and control? Maybe the authors of the report should be the first
who
take their own recommendations serious:”In the future, we need
to
eschew the kind of self-serious pomposity that gets in the way
of
change and embrace humility and fallibility as touchstones to
progress”. Wise words, well spoken, unfortunately completely
ignored
in the very same report.<br>
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Happy to work with fellow councilors
on a more detailed reply.<br>
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Yours<br>
</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Klaus<br>

coffee but held it down long enough to look up 'scylla'
and 'charybdis'. I was chagrinned to learn these new (to
me) words were first used in the ICANN context by the
beloved Norwegian Harald Alvestrand back in 2002, a few
reform movements back. Who knew?<br>

"The current ICANN has attempted to chart a course
between the scylla of doing nothing and the charybdis of
doing everything;" <br>

nose this morning when I read the blueprint from
the multistakeholder strategy panel. But, while
language like this: "engaging people in
meaningful and productive conversations about
how to redesign the way ICANN runs itself is
difficult because the conversation gets caught,
on the one hand, between the scylla of broad
generalities and geopolitics without regard to
the specifics of ICANN’s day-to-day work, and
the charybdis of mind-numbing technical detail
on the other" is a bit overblown, it also works
as mis-direction. There is no argument but that
generalities, geopolitics and technical detail
are a part of ICANN's life, but I would argue
with "broad" and "mind-numbing." That kind of
language tips the player's hand.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div><p class="MsoNormal"><br>
Further, by pegging effectiveness to the use of
expert networks and linking legitimacy to
crowdsourcing at each stage of decision making
may only hint at the future shape of ICANN but
it is clear in its view that the current version
is no longer appetizing. I will likely think
hard about that as I pack for the trip to
Singapore.<o:p></o:p></p>
