Dear Chapter Delegates,<br>
<br>
I am very pleased to be able to inform you that Walda W. Roseman has agreed<br>
to join the Internet Society as incoming Chief Operating Officer.<br>
<br>
Walda will be based in Reston, VA and will lead a globally distributed team.<br>
She will help guide the operational activities of the Internet Society,<br>
enabling the organization to achieve greater geographic reach and deliver on<br>
its mission to help ensure an open, globally accessible Internet for the<br>
benefit of individuals worldwide. To this end, she will oversee several key<br>
strategic programmes, with particular emphasis on our Regional Bureaus,<br>
Membership, and Business Development.<br>
<br>
As you have seen from the 2011 business plan, regionalisation is a key focus<br>
for the Internet Society given our desire and need to scale our activities<br>
across the world. Walda is tasked with helping us achieve our objectives, by<br>
working closely with the Chapters and their membership to extend both the<br>
reach and impact of our work.<br>
<br>
Walda brings a wealth of valuable experience in management, policy,<br>
communications, strategy, ICT and Internet issues to the role. Most<br>
recently, as founder and CEO of CompassRose International, she closely<br>
followed Internet ecosystem trends and key issues. In this capacity she has<br>
worked with the Internet Society's Strategic Global Engagement team,<br>
providing highly relevant industry information and briefings on the progress<br>
of working groups within organisations such as the ITU.<br>
<br>
Her previous experience has spanned such positions as Chief of the (US)<br>
Federal Communications Commission International Office, a variety of senior<br>
executive positions in external relations and strategic planning at<br>
Intelsat, COO of the (US) Corporation for Public Broadcasting and Senior<br>
Vice President for National Affairs and Planning at (US) National Public<br>
Radio. She also has been instrumental in creating activities to empower<br>
youth and women in the ICT arena.<br>
<br>
Please join me in welcoming Walda to the Internet Society family. If you<br>
would like to get in touch with Walda, she can be reached at<br>
