Dear Alejandra, all, I’d obviously be in favour of my one, but that goes without saying 😊 In terms of what Stephen proposed, I wonder if there is actually a common thing underlying both of our suggestions. ICANN has in some ways become very slow to achieve outcomes, and to the extent that is true, it does create some risks to the confidence and trust that people can have in ICANN’s version of the multi-stakeholder model. Selective adherence to the bylaws has the same impact. Maybe the bigger question is, if building confidence in ICANN’s multistakeholder means making it perform better (between the organisation and the community), what are our key priorities to drive that performance improvement? Just an idea, hoping to spark some discussion.

The Board's topic is: “What collaborative actions should the Community, Board and Org be undertaking to further progress achieving our strategic priorities?” From our last call some initial topics were suggested: 1. Stephen proposed "Board’s selective adherence to the bylaws". 2. Jordan proposed "How can we start streamlining and simplifying how ICANN works, reversing the trend of rising complexity and slowness". Stephen and Jordan, could you please expand on your proposals? @Everyone, please: 1. Send your thoughts on the Board's topic. 2. Comment on the proposed topics from our side. 3. Feel free to propose any other topics. We have until the 9th of September to send our list of topics back to the Board, but time flies and it is better to start our discussion sooner than later ;) Best regards, Alejandra ******************************************* Work like you don't need the money.
