It not only spreads the workload around but more importantly it allows for a small team of experienced people to collaborate together in leading the group’s efforts. Here are a few examples where a collaborative leadership team have been used:<o:p class=""></o:p></div><p style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""><span style="font-family: Symbol;" class="">·</span><span style="font-size: 7pt;" class=""> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>The GNSO Council has a chair plus two vice chairs.<o:p class=""></o:p></p><p style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""><span style="font-family: Symbol;" class="">·</span><span style="font-size: 7pt;" class=""> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>The Policy & Implementation WG had two co-chairs and two vice-chairs.<o:p class=""></o:p></p><p style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""><span style="font-family: Symbol;" class="">·</span><span style="font-size: 7pt;" class=""> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>The CWG Stewardship has two co-chairs.<o:p class=""></o:p></p><p style="margin-right: 0in; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""><span style="font-family: Symbol;" class="">·</span><span style="font-size: 7pt;" class=""> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>The CCWG Accountability has three co-chairs.<o:p class=""></o:p></p><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class="">By adding a condition that each of the leadership team members come from different SGs, it ensures that the chairs and vice chairs collectively have expertise about all four of the GNSO stakeholder groups and creates a situation where the leaders are well versed in the varying viewpoints that exist across all four groups as well as differences within their respective groups. I believe that this is especially important for an area such as Registration Data Services (Whois) that has been very controversial over the entirety of ICANN’s history.<o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class="">For those that are new to GNSO policy development processes, any recommendations made by a WG have to eventually be approved by the GNSO Council, which primarily consists of the four SGs.

This of course means managing meetings and online work to ensure that the WG charter requirements are satisfied. Hopefully, in most cases this will mean guiding the full group in developing recommendations that most if not all of the WG members can support. But, after diligent efforts to reach consensus, there is still significant divergence about certain proposed recommendations, it will be the leaders responsibility to decide whether there is sufficient support in the WG to submit such recommendations to the GNSO Council. Understanding this, it is important that each SG endorse the person on the leadership team from its group.<o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class="">I hope that we can confirm whether or not there is support for this approach in our WG call tomorrow. If there is, then it will guide our efforts in finding qualified members to serve on the leadership team as well as how to structure the team (2 co-chairs + 2 co-vice-chairs or 1 chair + 3 co-vice-chairs).<o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;
