    <p>Hi Tomslin, <br>
    </p>
    <p>This is hard as there is really no one in the queue with your
      depth of experience - and your close relationship to Council.</p>
    <p>Would you be willing to hold the position for another year, and
      then we can begin a search?  During that time, perhaps we can
      train or groom some possible successors?  If member and Councilors
      could take small parts of the NCSG Policy meeting -e.g., single
      agenda items to prepare, present, and field questions - perhaps
      they will grow to feel more comfortable with the larger process
      (and NCSG will grow to feel more comfortable with them)?</p>
    <p>You do your job tremendously well!  Tx you!</p>
    <p>Kathy<br>
    </p>

        <div>To be clear, I think after 4 years of being chair, it is
          necessary and healthy for the group for me to handover to
          someone else and most importantly, to allow for proper
          transition. I would prefer to do this while I am still in
          council so that I can be readily available to help the new
          chair (if needed) during transition.<br>
