[gnso-rds-pdp-wg] Call for volunteers - Next-Generation RDS WG Leadership

[Marika Konings]

Dear All,

As discussed during today's meeting, this constitutes the call for volunteers for individuals interested to take on a leadership role in the Next-Generation RDS PDP Working Group. Before volunteering, you are strongly encouraged to review the attached document, which outlines the anticipated tasks as well as the desirable skills of a WG Chair.

>From the WG's comments it is clear that the WG is ideally looking for individuals that have both knowledge of the subject matter as well as expertise in chairing a (PDP) Working Group. The WG discussed that the leadership team should not be too big nor too small (max. 4?) and ideally include individuals that have diverse perspectives on this issue as this is expected to facilitate the management of the Working Group. Once confirmed, the leadership team is expected to work out amongst themselves whether it takes the form of chair-vice-chairs or co-chairs.

Those interested in volunteering for a leadership role are encouraged to share their name with the mailing list and include a short expression of interest in which you outline your relevant knowledge and expertise, as well whether you have any specific preference for a chair or vice-chair role. Your expression of interest is expected to include at a minimum:


1)    Existing Stakeholder Group affiliations (if any)


2)    Relevant past PDP(s) or WG(s) in which you participated


3)    Leadership experience


4)    Perspective on the WHOIS issues and RDS


5)    Ability to devote sufficient time


6)    Preference for chair/co-chair or vice-chair position, if any.

As a reminder, the leadership team, regardless of their interests and affiliations, is expected to take a neutral stance in moderating discussion and leading the WG to consensus.

The Working Group is expected to consider the list of volunteers as well as leadership composition further during its meeting on 9 February.

Best regards,

Marika
