Dear all,
From my experience, Bruce Tonkin, the incumbent Council Chair has been dedicated at work; inclined to listen, consider and ponder various, competing and opposing views from the GNSO community and constituents; capable of working under high pressure and rather skilled and adroit in navigating through pressures from all sides; and resourceful to both staff (during our meetings) and council members and in terms of our overall working processes.
What a perfect chair! I can "hear" you thinking. Nope, not so fast. There have been a few mishaps, oversights, mistakes or misunderstandings. But we must recognize that the Council has just too much work for the resources available, and too many, often contradictory, pressures to be able to totally avoid those very few little glitches. So, all things well considered, I am pleased to nominate Bruce Tonkin as the GNSO Council Chair for the next mandate of, or less than, 12 months as the Council will see fit.
