<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Thanks Ron and Chuck for great feedback. I agree with your comments and would like to also suggest that we add a question about how well the GNSO does at inviting and encouraging new participation and engaging
new leaders in order to avoid the volunteer burn out mentioned below. Succession is a critical issue in most organizations and yet it isn’t really touched on in these questions. I think it may be helpful to ask– how does the GNSO attract and retain new talent
to provide succession in leadership and volunteerism? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I encourage everyone on this working party to take time in the next day or so to review the questions and provide any additional feedback on list or during the call.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Our goal by this Thursday will be to finalize feedback on the language and scope of the questions so that we can then plan to convene in London to discuss outreach and the plan to test the survey before it is
launched.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I know everyone is very busy and appreciate your time and commitment to ensure the 360 Assessment of the GNSO is as effective as possible.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Thanks for the constructive amendments/suggestions, Chuck. I concur with you on all that you have noted. Reading your comments on Q26 brought up a question in my mind:
</span>Considering the demands of a bottom-up multistakeholder model, is the applicable body able to develop policy recommendations in a timely manner? <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">This type of question may provide insight into constituency/SO/AC
<u>capacity</u>. As we all know – certainly everyone on this list – there is a relatively small core of volunteers, backed up by a distant ‘support group’, if you will, and all of those people only have so much bandwidth. Bandwidth speaks to the issue of how
many hands we have on deck as opposed to volunteer burnout, which we may be conflating to mean the same thing. A data point on this would separate those two issues and perhaps give us a better look at how the MSM really works.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is one idea for improving the wording in the questions to deal with the concern that Ron expressed: instead of saying “the governing or leadership body” or “the GNSO/structural component” say “applicable group”. In the introductory
instructions it would also probably be helpful to say something like this: “When the questions refer to ‘applicable group’, they are referring to one of the following groups: GNSO overall, GNSO Council, GNSO SG or Constituency, or GNSO Working Group.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Question 24 seems unclear to me: “How well did the GNSO/structural component’s key products/outputs meet your expectations?” First of all, I don’t think that ‘products’ is a very good term to use because GNSO groups don’t produce products
in the traditional sense of the term. Also, using the past tense seems to imply a specific occurrence in the past and I think we are looking for a continuum of experience. Here is a suggestion for rewording: “How well have the outputs of the applicable group
met your expectations?” A similar change could be made in Question 25.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am not sure that Question 26 is going to yield very helpful information: “In terms of quantity, has the GNSO/structural component completed a sufficient number of decisions and proposed policies?” It may be that there is more than one
question being asked here. Here are some possible questions in place of the current one: “Is the applicable group able to make decisions in a timely manner? Is the applicable group able to respond to requests for comments in a timely manner? Is the GNSO
Council able to act on WG policy recommendations in a timely manner? Considering the demands of a bottom-up multistakeholder model, are working groups able to develop policy recommendations in a timely manner? (Note that some of my suggested questions would
not apply to all groups so, if they are used, they would need to be presented differently.)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I encourage everyone to freely critique my suggestions and/or add to them.<o:p></o:p></p>
