my view, the important thing from a transparency and fairness
perspective, is to accurately calculate what qualities,
skills, experience, etc we need for the job, and figure out a
fair weighting of points, keeping in mind gender and regional
representation concerns. Then we publish that in advance. We
have a lot of work to do just to reach this level of maturity,
in my view, as we could see from the reception that the grid
Ayden prepared for the SSC received. In my view, assessment
of what is needed and evaluation of candidates is actually
quite difficult, and I don't think we as a group necessarily
can reach agreement right now on which roles are good for
newcomers, and which demand experience, which require previous
participation on PDPs, etc.. Once we have a thorough
discussion of these factors, and agree to do the work up front
on the assessment grid (a non-trivial piece of work), then,
frankly, the assessment grid does the job for us, there is
very little need to comment further on the characteristics of
the candidates, except to commend the winner on having
demonstrated x</font></font>, y, and Z. <font size="+1"><br clear="none">

groups and contributing to comments, in my view. That should be
our priority, getting people onto working teams, helping mentor
them along, and not doing anything that might discourage them

<div>Hi all,<br clear="none">
</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>Just to build on this discussion, I'd
like to suggest a proposal for future
processes, to see what the community
thinks. As noted in the above email,
there are two main concerns with
expanding transparency in these
processes. The first concerns the
potential impact on the candour of the
deliberative process, the second
concerns whether having open discussions
of candidates' strengths and weaknesses
might deter people from running for
positions. I think both of these are
legitimate concerns. However, in
designing transparency systems, when we
see potential harms like this, we don't
necessarily give up on trying to expand
openness. Rather, we try and develop a
solution which avoids these harms, but
which nonetheless provides for a boost
in openness.<br clear="none">
</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>I would propose that, for future
nominations processes, after
deliberations have concluded, and the
successful candidate(s) have been
informed, the EC collate the email
discussions together and de-attribute
them - so it is not possible to
determine which EC member said what, but
that all comments are preserved. These
anonymized comments can then be sent to
all candidates - which will be helpful
for them in assessing their own
candidacy, and potential areas of
improvement. The candidates will then be
asked if they consent to the document
being publicly distributed and <u style="font-weight:bold;">if they
consent,</u> it can then be made
public.<br clear="none">
</div>
<div><br clear="none">
</div>
<div>My idea is that the de-attribution
will prevent concerns that EC members
will be held personally responsible for
critical assessments of candidates,
while the requirement for candidates'
consent to disclosure will ensure that,
in cases where people are uncomfortable
with what has been said about them, they
can keep it from being distributed.<br clear="none">

</div>
<div style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;">Thanks
to everyone for having
engaged in a robust
discussion on this
latest nomination.
Since the question of
transparency has been
raised, we thought it
best to respond
regarding our thought
process, and the road
ahead.<br clear="none">
</div>
<div style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;"><br clear="none">
</div>
<div style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;">As
many on this list have
noted, transparency is
of the utmost
importance in these
processes. The
community needs to be
confident that the
process was fair,
honest and
accountable. We take
this responsibility
seriously. As others
have also noted, there
are competing
considerations that
need to be carefully
balanced as part of
these processes. These
include the ability of
the EC to openly and
honestly express their
views about
candidates, discussing
their weaknesses as
well as their
strengths. It is also
worth noting that
often the candidates
for these positions
are our respected
colleagues. The
process requires that
EC members be able to
discuss their
preferences frankly,
without worrying that
their remarks will
lead to personal
animosity down the
line. Another
important
consideration is that
we want to structure
the process in a way
that encourages
candidates to run.
Having our assessments
of their strengths and
weaknesses made public
could be an unpleasant
experience for
potential candidates,
discouraging them from
seeking positions. <br clear="none">

<div style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;"><br clear="none">
</div>
<div style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;">These
considerations were
much less of an issue
in this case, as we
were fortunate enough
to have two
outstanding
candidates, either of
whom would have made
an excellent NomCom
rep - but they are
principles of general
importance. So how
should these
considerations be
balanced against our
fundamental
responsibility to
execute a transparent
and accountable
process, and one which
inspires confidence
among the membership
of the NCUC?<br clear="none">

the path forward
