NOTICE: ICANN Leadership Program Postponed for FY25

[Raymond Mamattah]

Interesting! What is happening to ICANN? Earlier on we learnt of staff
being laid off
<https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/organizational-changes-to-ensure-icanns-financial-stability-and-sustainability-30-05-2024-en>
because of financial issues. Now it is the turn of postponing the
leadership training.

What is accounting for these financial challenges? Are they for real?
