Note that what we did before was to make a call to NCSG EC and NCSG PC and see who would be interested,. Note that preferably current or incoming leaders should be recommended for the program. we don't have a selection process for this normally when non of the leaders in PC nor EC applied for it then the call went to the general membership list with a deadline. If more than one leader is interested, normally they discuss and one goes away in favor of the other or becomes an alternate. I will send this call to PC as well t since I am not chair I will not get involved with setting deadlines and a lightweight process like before. Please volunteer and take up this task.</span>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">The ICANN Academy Leadership Program (LP) during the <a href="https://community.icann.org/display/LTP/2018+Leadership+Program" target="_blank">ICANN61 Meeting in Puerto Rico</a> was another success and we are now preparing the 6<sup>th</sup> edition that is scheduled to take place 7-8 March 2019, two days prior to the official start of ICANN64 in Kobe, Japan. </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt"> </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">For this program, one (1) seat is reserved for a representative from the NCSG. The program is designed for current <i><u>and</u> </i>incoming leaders, helping to increase understanding of the complexity of ICANN and to develop facilitation skills, as well as building a network with other leaders. We are aware that understanding ICANN as an organization, the topics discussed within ICANN, and interaction within other stakeholder groups can be challenging for incoming leaders, but sometimes also for experienced leaders. ICANN and the community are making considerable efforts in order to help incoming leaders have a good start to their terms and to provide current leaders the opportunity to strengthen their leadership and facilitation skills. Opportunities for Leadership Program participants include the following: </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt"> </span>
</p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:15px"><span style="font-size:11pt">Meet leaders from the other SOs/ACs and get an insight of the functionality and issues in other groups</span>
</li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:15px"><span style="font-size:11pt">Discuss current ICANN topics in an in-depth manner</span>
</li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:15px"><span style="font-size:11pt">Deepen the understanding of key ICANN processes</span>
</li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:15px"><span style="font-size:11pt">Develop facilitation and leadership skills, focused personal effectiveness to run meetings and foster processes </span>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt"> </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">A preliminary program is attached to this email. Kindly note that this is subject to change. </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">Accommodation for participants will be covered between Wednesday and Thursday, 6-7 March 2019, and participants will receive a stipend. Please note that flights will <b>NOT</b> be covered under this program, as incoming and current leaders are normally covered by the regular ICANN travel support. Please ensure that the leaders you select are being covered by ICANN Travel Support for their flights to Kobe for ICANN64.</span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt"> </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">We would like to ask you to identify one incoming or current leader from your stakeholder group who is interested and available to participate in this program. We recommend that you also identify an alternate candidate. Kindly forward us the names and email addresses of the endorsed individuals no later than <b>Thursday, 8 November 2018</b>, and ask them to register <a href="https://goo.gl/forms/HAInCnPEwsYRxKFs2" target="_blank">here</a> by 23:59 UTC on 8 November as well.</span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt"> </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">We hope this program will meet the needs of your community. All participants will be encouraged to partake in an open exchange of their views, as this will help facilitate cross-constituency collaboration during their terms. </span>
