Dear All

Please see an email below about a survey for the community around what we think should be the qualities that the WMF looks for in the next Executive Director. This is important, and it is more important that they have input from a more diverse community than they have anticipated.

Please fill in the survey linked below.

warmest Isla

Hello all,

The ED search steering group has been soliciting input for a few weeks, and while a few people were fairly vocal about what they were looking for in a new ED, we decided that we needed more input from a broader range of people and we want to hear more from our emerging communities. To that end, we have written and published a survey [1] intended to help us both validate and prioritize the good feedback we have already received.

Our survey is currently open in the top 10 wiki languages. A sample of editors from various languages have been invited to participate and we are also sending an invitations to anyone here and through our networks. Please participate in the survey and help us to shape the new ED’s profile.

On behalf of the ED search steering group

Alice.
