for one, I don't see it as broken, so I don't see a need to fix it.<br>
<br>
Herewith, I believe that the executive committee should remain the four
officers, plus an international liaison and a technical liaison.<br>
<br>
I *do* agree that the other committees should operate in a more accountable
fashion and report on their progress to the board more often. But doing
that seems independent of the EC to me. (The EC is the one committee that
*has* operated effectively and regularly reported on its results to the full
board -- a model that the other committees should emulate.)<br>
<br>
Covering all bases, I believe that the full board should meet about every 6-8
weeks. 3 months is far too long between meetings at this stage of the
game. (I do believe that these meetings should be in person whenever
possible.)<br>

<br>
Hey Brian,<br>
It sounds like I'm being slightly misunderstood. I believe that<br>
either of the two following scenarios are reasonable.<br>
<br>
1) The Executive Committee is made up of the four officers and one<br>
chair from each remaining Committee. It's very likely that there will<br>
be overlap between Officers and Committee chairs. This means that the<br>
Executive Committee is around ten people. With strong leadership and<br>
agenda setting these calls should be productive.<br>
<br>
2) The Executive Committee is made up of the four officers and it<br>
solely focuses on the logistics which go into keeping the organization<br>
really moving forward. (Things like Don's contract, the budget, and<br>
that each Committee is making progress.) We would then have a<br>
Leadership Committee (<insert better name here>) which is made up of<br>
the Executive Committee and one chair from each remaining Committee.<br>
This Committee would be empowered to tackle execution and coordination<br>
issues across the organization; much like an executive team at a<br>
company.<br>
<br>
Part of my goal is ensuring that there is both regular accountability<br>
of each Committee to a group smaller than the Board itself and that<br>
each Committee has a meaningful forum to raise organizational needs on<br>
a regular basis.<br>
<br>
I imagine that the full board then meets only once a quarter and each<br>
Committee (including the Executive and/or Leadership) meets at least<br>
monthly with the majority of their work occurring between meetings via<br>
mailing lists.<br>
<br>

discuss<br>
><br>

><br>

><br>
>>> One of the suggestions that came out of that discussion was a
suggestion<br>

committee. It<br>
><br>

officer" positions are<br>
