[Chapter-delegates] Injecting Chapter Views - effectively

[Rodel Urani]

Are we asking ISOC to run Chapters now? Maybe not. However, some, as I can see, are essential to success of persevering Chapters.

Greetings,


We strongly view and support the Sivasubramanian, that planning process should be bottom up each chapter should prepare its annual work plan submit it in regional consultations have a focus group discussion, allocation of resources human and financial, then develop a strategy, training should be needs based (not person based) as mostly we see same faces in meeting, seminar and training, planning system should have good governance build in. Review process should have all the stakeholders the chapter should be the 1st point of contact. The ISOC is doing a great job, these suggestion may pleased be considered for strategic planning and result.




Best Regards




Asif Kabani

  Make the entire ISOC process a bottom-up process. It isn't now.

    We seem to have gone down a path where some people are pointing out
    they feel disenfranchised by the ISOC consultation processes for
    chapter engagement.

    I'd like to turn the question around, and ask: "what are the most
    effective ways to effectively inject Chapter viewpoints into ISOC's
    work, and vice versa?"

    Our essential mission is to turn the statement "The Internet is for
    Everyone" into a reality, and we need to take a strong, diplomatic,
    intelligent and well informed approach to the many educational,
    advisory and other things we do. So, other than promoting discussion
    on the chapter delegates mailing list, what are the best ways to do
    this, where ISOC staff, chapters and representatives feel mutually
    informed and supported?

    Is it tools, such as blogs, information packs and guides?

    Is it conferences, meetings and social efforts?

    Is it remote participation tools?

    Is it direct training?

    Along those lines, I've been really enjoying Joly's news feeds, and am
    always impressed at the various chapter meetings and newsletters when
    people describe the things their chapters are doing.  The support I
    got at ICANN earlier this year certainly helped me find my way around
    (even literally in that venue!).

    Our chapter hopes to produce a video along the lines of the UK one
    shared recently.

    I know I'd like to see a regularly updated ISOC fact pack that I can
    use when I brief government, industry and user groups on the society.
    One that I can easily turn into the dreaded powerpoint, or flash show.

    Sometimes I find it difficult to locate information relevant to the
    latest government submission on my list of things to do... (this
    month's one is 'convergence'!)

    So what works for your chapter, and vice versa, what approaches used
    by ISOC staff worked to get your feedback into the issue of the
    moment?


    all the best
