ICANN Nominating Committee 2006:
Call for Statements of Interest for ICANN leadership positions

The ICANN Nominating Committee has posted a call for statements of interest for leadership positions on its Board of Directors and Supporting Organizations. Deadline for submissions in July 16, 2006.

Please read the material below and consider who might be a strong candidate. Self-nominations are strongly encouraged. All applications will be handled confidentially.

We are to select 3 board members, 2 members of the At Large Advisory Committee (positions representing European and North American regions), 1 member of the Council of the Country-Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO), 1 member of the Council of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO).

Please see <<http://www.icann.org/committees/nom-comm/>http:// www.icann.org/committees/nom-comm/> for more information about how to submit a statement of interest.

I'd be happy to help explain the process and positions to anyone considering becoming a candidate.

Many thanks,

Adam Peake <ajp@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~oOo~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ICANN Nominating Committee invites Statements of Interest from the community as it seeks qualified candidates for the following positions:

     -  three members of the ICANN Board of Directors;

     -  one member of the Council of the Generic Names Supporting
        Organization (GNSO);

     -  one member of the Council of the Country-Code Names
        Supporting Organization (ccNSO); and

     -  two members of the At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC).

Those individuals selected by the Nominating Committee will have a unique opportunity to work with accomplished colleagues from around the globe, address intriguing technical coordination problems and related policy development challenges with diverse functional, cultural, and geographic dimensions, and gain valuable insights and experience from working across these boundaries of knowledge, responsibility and perspective.

Additionally, those selected will gain the satisfaction of making a valuable public service contribution. Placing the broad public interest ahead of any particular interests, they will help ensure the stability and security of the Internet for critically important societal functions.

These voluntary positions are not remunerated, although direct expenses incurred in the course of duty will be reimbursed. These positions may involve significant international travel, including personal presence at periodic ICANN meetings, as well as regular telephone and Internet communications.

Candidates should be women and men with a high level of qualifications and experience with an international outlook including some familiarity with the Internet. They should be prepared to contribute to the collective decision-making process among ICANN's constituencies, supporting organizations and advisory bodies.

Selection criteria, eligibility factors, roles of each position, application procedure, and contacts are posted at:

<<http://www.icann.org/committees/nom-comm/>http://www.icann.org/ committees/nom-comm/>

Applications will be handled confidentially and should be received by 16 July 2006 for full consideration. Selections will be made before the end of October with service beginning at the close of ICANN's General Meeting, 8 December 2006.
