<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Dear Amrita, <br>
It seems that many of the decisions are not taken because ISOC
wanted to take them, but because it had to. Andrew has said
several times that he had to take them, regardless of his personal
feelings or friendships. <br>
Perhaps the chapters don't quite understand the reasoning, and
maybe this is what needs to get some better explanations?<br>

The board is my boss. They can fire me, and they can direct
me not to do things, just like any boss can. If, however, you
are in a situation where the board is effectively telling the
CEO what to do as part of his/her duties, then you have a
broken arrangement. There's a reason we separate board issues
from staff issues, and it is precisely so that the board is
not trying to do (as a collective) what is better handled by a
single individual who can delegate the operational
responsibility.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
A<br>
