Secondly, and
this is directed more at the Board, I understand that
Sue has been hired as a "consultant and special advisor" and not as
Executive Director at least partly because of immigration-related
restrictions on the work she is presently entitled to perform in the
United States. Will the Board be providing the community with a
description of the position "consultant and special advisor"? Are
there any substantive differences between this position and that of
Executive Director?
I see no particular reason not to post Sue's job description, but I'll
ask the Chair to confirm that.
The differences between a Board-level consultant and a freshly minted
ED aren't that great, as the Board needs to build a trust relationship
with this new staff member in either case. Beyond 3-6 months in the
future, should the professional relationship develop as expected, this
status will become too limiting, and I hope the remaining constraints
can be removed within that timeframe.
Hello
I am sorry, but I was not able to find an internet connection in the
past 36 hours, and will probably be off for the week end. That was my
last move of june (*relief*).
So, yeah, things to be done
* publish Sue job description on Foundation wiki (not done yet)
* remove the reference for ED position being searched (apparently done)
on foundation
* create her asap a sgardner at
wikimedia.org
* add Sue to foundation-l, internal-l and internal wiki, office wiki,
wmfcc-l, juriwiki-l, private-l, wikimania-l, wikimania-planning-l,
fundcom-l.
* add her on staff page on foundation wiki
* add her biography on foundation wiki
* add the press release on foundation wiki
* add announcement on foundation wiki (news) with links to pages "press
release" and biography
* then breath and wait till monday :-)
