Dear EC,

Hope this email finds you well! And happy to work with you from now on (:

I understand I need to check with the constituencies if their reps will be
kept but before that, I would like to inform you about a Meeting between
the GNSO leadership and Council thats taking place on nov 5th.

The aim of this session is to convene SG and C's leadership and the council
in a brainstorming session for the upcoming year and possible challenges
the council might face. NCSG is being offered 5 min for a short exposition
on *(a) introduction of our group and how it works with your respective
Council members and (b)  What are your group’s perspective on the main
opportunities and threats for the GNSO Council for the upcoming year and
beyond?*

In case any of you has thoughts or concerns you would think its important
for me to add during this session, feel free to let me know.

best regards,
Bruna

Dear Outgoing GNSO Council Members and GNSO Stakeholder Group and
Constituency Chairs,



As you may be aware, the GNSO Council is planning its 2021 Strategic
Planning Session (SPS) which will take place in a virtual format during the
November timeframe. The themes and objectives for this year’s GNSO Council
SPS are:



1.       Welcome and integration of new Council members in a virtual
environment

·         Ensure that (new) Council members are familiar with key documents
and information concerning the GNSO Council’s role and responsibilities and
related procedures;

·         Create an environment of collegiality and trust;

·         Develop practical skills and knowledge that contribute to
fulfilling the role of a GNSO Council member.

2.       Empowering the GNSO Council to deliver on its priorities and
commitments

·         Ensure a common understanding of the Council’s priorities and
commitments for the year ahead;

·         Evaluate and identify working methods that empower the GNSO
Council with the contribution from all Council members to deliver on its
priorities and commitments;

3.       Council Action / Decision Radar – from theory to practice, how to
align program management with resources.

·         Develop understanding and tools that allow for the alignment of
program management with the resources available and/or identification of
resources needed;

·         Based on this understanding, review the Council ADR to ensure
that the Council will be able to deliver on the priorities and commitments
it has identified for the year head.



To kick off the SPS and benefit from your knowledge and expertise, we would
like to invite you to:



*GNSO Council Opportunities and Threats brainstorming session taking place
on Thursday 5 November 2020 at **19:00 UTC*



The objective of this session is to hear from you about the most pressing
issues you believe the Council and Council members should be focusing on
during the upcoming year and beyond. In addition, we would like to
encourage you to share any tips & tricks you may have for new Council
members. The output of this meeting is expected to help inform the
discussions during the subsequent SPS sessions.



To allow you to prepare accordingly, we would like to propose to structure
this session as follows. Please note the slight difference in focus – SG/C
Chairs are expected to focus on the GNSO Council as a whole, while outgoing
Council members are expected to focus on Council members as individuals.



Proposed structure:



   1. Welcome & introduction by GNSO Chair Philippe Fouquart (5 minutes)
   2. SG/C Chair perspectives (5 minutes each – total 40 minutes)

a.                   Briefly introduce your group and how it works with
your respective Council members

b.                   What are from your group’s perspective the main
opportunities and threats for the GNSO Council for the upcoming year and
beyond?

c.                   If time allows, questions from Council members

   1. Outgoing Council members (5 minutes each – total 40 minutes, if all
   are able to participate)

a.                   Briefly introduce yourself and by whom you were
appointed to the GNSO Council.

b.                   What are from your perspective the main opportunities
and threats for Council members for the upcoming year and beyond?

c.                   Any tips or tricks you have for Council members to
facilitate their work?

   1. Comments / Observations from Council members (25 minutes)
   2. Conclusion – GNSO Chair Philippe Fouquart (5 minutes)



We hope we can count on your participation! Please RSVP to
gnso-secs at icann.org so we can adjust timing accordingly. We look forward to
your input and engagement.



Sincerely



GNSO Council Leadership



Philippe Fouquart (GNSO Chair)

Pam Little (GNSO Council Vice-Chair)

Tatiana Tropina (GNSO Council Vice-Chair)
