Apply Now for ICANN's Leadership Positions

Apply Now to Join the ICANN Board, the Councils of GNSO and ccNSO, and the
ALAC

7 November 2012
ICANN's Nominating Committee (NomCom) invites Statements of Interest and
candidate recommendations from the Internet community for key leadership
positions to fulfill ICANN's technical and policy coordination role.
Interested individuals are invited to submit a Statement of Interest to the
Nominating Committee for the following positions:

   - Three members of the Board of Directors of ICANN
   - Three At Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) representatives (one each
   from the Africa, Asia/Australia/Pacific Islands and Latin America/Caribbean
   Islands regions)
   - Two members of the Council of the Generic Names Supporting
   Organization (GNSO)
   - One member of the Council of the Country-Code Names Supporting
   Organization (ccNSO)

The NomCom is an independent committee tasked with selecting eight members
of the Board of Directors and other key positions within ICANN's structure.
ICANN is a not-for-profit, public benefit corporation dedicated to:
preserving the operational security and stability of the Internet;
promoting competition; achieving broad representation of global Internet
communities; and supporting the development of policies appropriate to its
mission through bottom-up, consensus-based processes.
Individuals selected by the NomCom will have a unique opportunity to work
with accomplished colleagues from around the globe, address the Internet's
intriguing technical coordination problems and policy development
challenges with diverse functional, cultural, and geographic dimensions,
and gain valuable insights and experience from working across boundaries of
knowledge, responsibility and perspective.
Those selected will gain the satisfaction of making a valuable public
service contribution towards the continued function and evolution of an
essential global resource. Considering the broad public interest, those
selected will work to achieve the goals towards which ICANN is dedicated in
order to facilitate the Internet's critically important societal functions.
Current Board members who have been selected by the NomCom include: Cherine
Chalaby, Bertrand de la Chapelle, Steve Crocker, Olga Madruga-Forti, Erika
Mann, Gonzalo Navarro, George Sadowsky, and Judith Duavit Vazquez.
Statements of Interest for the positions described above can be submitted
through an on-line application form at (http://nomcom.icann.org/apply) or
by contacting nomcom2013 at icann.org.
More information regarding the NomCom can be found at
http://nomcom.icann.org. Applications will be considered in confidence and
should be received by 1 May 2013 for full consideration. Selections will be
announced in early September 2013. Successful candidates will take up their
positions following ICANN's Annual Meeting in November 2013.
Candidate recommendations are encouraged and can be submitted through an
on-line form at http://nomcom.icann.org/suggest, and questions or comments
may also be submitted to nomcom2013 at icann.org.
Fluency in English is a requirement for all positions. These positions may
involve significant international travel, including personal presence at
periodic ICANN Public Meetings, as well as regular telephone and Internet
communications. Reasonable direct expenses incurred in the course of
service will be reimbursed. Each Board Member may also choose to receive
compensation in accordance with the resolution passed by the Board on 8
December 2011, but is not required to do so. (*See*
http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-08dec11-en.htm#3.)
Background The NomCom is designed to function independently from the ICANN
Board, Supporting Organizations, and Advisory Committees. NomCom members
act only on behalf of the interests of the global Internet community and
within the scope of the ICANN mission and responsibilities assigned to it
by the ICANN Bylaws.
NomCom members contribute understanding of the broad interests of the
Internet community as a whole, and knowledge and experience of specific
Internet constituencies who have appointed them.
The challenge for the NomCom is to integrate these perspectives and derive
consensus in its selections. Although appointed by Supporting Organizations
and other ICANN bodies, individual NomCom members are not accountable to
their appointing bodies.
NomCom members are accountable for adherence to the ICANN Bylaws and for
compliance with the rules and procedures established by the NomCom.
Recent ICANN Public Meetings have been held in Senegal, Costa Rica, Czech
Republic and Canada. Meetings during 2013 are scheduled for Beijing, China;
Durban, South Africa; and in the Latin America/Caribbean region.
