[ICANN Academy WG] RESULTS of the ICANN Academy Single Purpose Call: "Intercultural Awareness Program Candidates Evaluation"

[Marilyn Cade]

Sandra.


I regret that circumstances prevented my joining the call, however, I have raised my concerns about the approach of limiting to only five. I seriously doubt that my concerns would have been listened to, as I have stated them now more than once, and so, I will restate this again.


It is important to consider that by excluding different representatives that have indicated their strong interest in contributing, the 'project' also excludes the possible champions of the project.


We have to understand that ICANN's budget is finite and that having champions is important, for any new initiative.


I think that five is much too small for several reasons, and yes, I disagree with the ICANN retained consultant.   I have a lot of experience as well in doing organizational development, and frankly, most small groups spend their time, defending why they are so "small".


I did fill in the self nomination to be an individual participant.


However, I continue to strongly recommend that this limitation of 5 needs to be changed and that more inclusion be established, before moving forward.

Please note: if you have not been selected to this Work Team this does not mean that you cannot contribute to this new programme. There is still one more day to register as an ordinary participant<https://www.formpl.us/form/6133876508327936> and the evolvement of this course will be based on the feedback and input we gather from the first group. You can visit the list of registrations we received so far here: https://community.icann.org/display/LTP/2017+Registered+Participants

Also these criteria’s and the composition of the group are not carved in stone for the future, but will help us to move forward with this pilot quickly.

Please let me know until Monday 18 September if you have strong objection to this proposal otherwise this group will start working with Incite Learning.

Best Sandra
Chair of the ICANN Academy WG
