[NCSG-EC] Fwd: Invitation - ICANN Chairing Skills Program (CSP) 2019 - RSVP

[farzaneh badii]

Here is another program (chair skill) which needs to be attended to but
it's not that urgent. I attended it and it was great. But I was lucky to
have a good mentor. Here I think again you need to ask among yourselves
(including PC) who should take the course. if no one available then an
incoming leader or someone actually active in PDPs should register. Note
that those who are actually going to Kobe should be selected.

Anyone who can volunteer to sort this one out would be great.






Dear Farzaneh,



Based on the success of the pilot Chairing Skills Program (CSP), we are now
preparing its second edition, to be held in 2019. The CSP addresses the
chairing skills challenges that ICANN community contributors can face when
taking up the responsibility of leading a working group or stakeholder
group.



The CSP is essentially a peer-coaching program. The target audience is new
ICANN Chairs that want to develop their chairing skills and wish to be
coached by their peers who have had previous experience as Chairs. Coaches
will work directly with the Chairs by observing them on calls and in
meetings, and providing specific feedback on how to be even more effective.
This allows for the Chairs learning to be timely and immediately
implementable.



The ICANN Academy Chairing Skills Program will be divided into two parts:

   1. Face-to-Face Chairing Skills
   2. Telephone Chairing Skills



The aim of dividing the course into two parts is to focus both on the
development of one skill at a time, as well as to incorporate feedback from
the first session into the second. The Face-to-Face Chairing Skills (Part
1) is planned to begin during ICANN64 in Kobe, Japan. The results of Part 1
will feed into the Telephone Chairing Skills (Part 2) that will continue
beyond ICANN64 until ICANN65. A professional external coach from Incite
Learning and community coaches will facilitate the course. Incite Learning
has been a regular contributor to the Leadership Program, which has been
held since 2013.



Full details of the CSP program, including the background, course program,
and the online registration form are available on the ICANN Academy
Chairing Skills Program Workspace

If you or other current leaders from your stakeholder group are interested
and available to participate in this program, please register here
<https://goo.gl/forms/CVsQBoQh4Ow56ecG2> by *Friday, 21 December, 2018 at
23:59 UTC.*



As Chair of the ICANN Academy WG, I will be available to provide additional
information to your group during ICANN63 in Barcelona. Kindly let me know
if (and when) I can introduce both the Leadership Program (LP) and the
Chairing Skills Program (CSP) during one of your meetings. I will provide
information on both programs and answer any questions. It would not take
more than 5 min.



Kind regards,

Sandra Hoferichter, Chair of the ICANN Academy Working Group
