Dear all</div>
<div align="left"><br>
</div>
<div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:11pt">Another NomCom cycle
is nearing its end. NomCom has just completed a series of
online intersessional meetings - three four-hour long calls
- and we have come up with the finalised list of candidates
for open ICANN leadership positions. Between now and
Marrakesh we will follow up with candidates' references, and
prepare for the final selection process which will take
place in Marrakesh during ICANN65. <br>
</div>
<div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:11pt"><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span><br>
</span></div>
<div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:11pt"><span>At the close
of the application period in late March, NomCom had
received 127 applications in total: 56 from Africa; 35
from Asia Pacific; 13 from Europe; 21<br>
from Latin America and the Caribbean; and 2 from North
America. There were 42 female and 85 male applicants.
Several applicants applied for more than one position. The
low number of NA candidates is simply a result of the fact
that the complement of board members from North America is
full at present and we were not appointing anyone for ALAC
from NA in this round. The gender breakdown is
disappointing. In my view addressing this should be given
serious consideration by future NomComs. The 2018 figures
looked better.<br>
</span></div>
<div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:11pt"><span><br>
</span></div>
<div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:11pt"><span>
<div><span><span><span>At an intersessional meeting in Los
Angeles from </span></span>10-13 April NomCom
members reviewed and discussed each of the 128
applications and produced a long list of 58
candidates. From late April to mid-May applicants we
took another close look at candidates' applications
and background material, and conducted voice with all
of them. <br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>The final list consists of a total of 24
shortlisted candidates in total for all the positions:
Board, PTI Board; GNSO; ccNSO; ALAC-Africa; ALAC-Asia
Pacific; ALAC Latin American and the Caribbean. The
number of candidates per position varies from 7 to 2.
As I said above, we will finalise our selections in
Marrakesh, including interviewing Board and PTI Board
candidates face-to-face. The public announcement of
the final selection, however, will only be made from
late August to September.<br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>I am very happy to report that we had excellent
candidates - that is not new of course. However, what
is particularly rewarding is that we also had
excellent candidates from Africa which indicates we
manage to respond effectively to a challenge
identified in 2018. There is also good diversity in
the shortlist from the perspective of insiders vs.
outsiders, and the background and experience of
candidates. <br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Below is a reminder of the 2019 NomCom
Timeline. I also attach the May 2019 NomCom update.</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Finally, my second term on NomCom is coming to
an end. This means it is time for NCUC to identify
someone new. I am available to share information about
the workload and skills needed with anyone who is
interested.<br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Thanks again to the NCUC for appointing me and
to NCUC leadership for their support. It has been very
positive experience. I have learnt more about ICANN
than in the previous 20 years :) It is hard work,
frustrating at times, but rewarding to see how a group
of very diverse individuals can work together
effectively to produce what I trust will again be an
impressive group of people that will add value to
ICANN. <br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>Thank you also to NomCom leadership: Damon
Ashcraft (chair), Jay Sudowski (incoming chair) and
Zahid Jamil (outgoing chair) for creating a very
constructive and respectful work environment. As for
the ICANN staff support team, they have been
excellent. We would never be able to do this without
them.<br>
</span></div>
<div><span><br>

<div><span>Sincere regards</span></div>
