>> start in their term and provide current leaders the opportunity to
>> strengthen their leadership and facilitation skills.
>> Participants will have the chance to:  
>> ·       meet leaders from the other AC/SOs,
>> ·       discuss ICANN hot policy topics in an in-depth manner,
>> ·       deepen the understanding of key ICANN processes
>> ·       develop facilitation and leadership skills, focused personal
>> effectiveness to run meetings and foster processes
>> ·       facilitate a session on a topic of their expertise and in
>> accordance to the curriculum (experienced leaders only)
>> The preliminary programme is attached .
>>
>> Accommodation for participants will be covered and participants will
>> receive a stipend. Please note that flights will NOT be covered under
>> this programme as incoming leaders are normally covered by the regular
>> ICANN travel support. Please ensure that the leaders you select are
>> being covered by ICANN Travel Support for their flights to Dublin for
>> the ICANN 54 Meeting.

>> *We would like to ask you to identify an** **incoming or current

>> participate in this pro**gramme and ask them to register
>> at: https://community.icann.org/display/LTP/Leadership+Training+Program+Home  by
>> Monday, 31 August.***
>>
>> We hope this pilot programme will meet the needs of your community. It
>> is an offer for incoming leaders to get on board easier and should

>> ICANN policies and hone their facilitation and leadership skills. All
>> participants will be encouraged to partake in an open exchange of
>> their views as this will facilitate cross-constituency collaboration

>> We are very happy to answer any questions you may have on this
