The Board and NomCom have to know that the nominating process lends itself to 
board capture.

It provides a safe and simple mechanism for that, requiring only a few people 
to execute.

That kind of vulnerability is not consistent with a mature governance regime.

 

Thank you Cathy, for sharing. 

In my recent case of rejection, I never received any interview but perhaps 
that’s only for Board elections. 

Still I am sure there is nothing adverse in my background and I also received 
no explanations from anybody.

 

Something is amiss and the Board should make a statement acknowledging problems 
in this cycle and undertaking specific processes to rectify things before the 
next cycle. Permission should be granted to discuss this here on the ppml, the 
Board should perform an investigation and make a report based on community 
input and inside information regarding changes to be considered.

as someone who has been nominated twice and not chosen as a candidate I have 
asked for (in addition to transparency)

 

- The results of the background check of me that was done as part of the process

- The synopsis of the interview with the contractor who interviews candidates 
and gives a synopsis to the nomcom.  

 

The interview with the consultant is new and who knows what that person tells 
the nomcom?  The first time I was interviewed by the nomcom but was not told 
who was on the call that day.  It was super weird.

 

These requests went unanswered by the nomcom.  I got a "that's a good 
suggestion I'll look into it" and then nothing.

Mike -

 

  Speaking only as myself, and not as a member of the AC or the NomCom:

 

I hear your frustrations for transparency, and I have formulated a suggestion 
that I've shared with the NomCom to improve the way that candidate responses 
are handled.

 

To wit -

 

   I've suggested simple, impartial, boilerplate language that would be used 
for all candidates, to show where those candidates were marked as "needing 
additional improvement"

 

Examples of those areas were:

    ethics, business, governance, communication, finance, and education

 

There is obviously room for other areas.  I'd love to hear what your thoughts 
would be.

 

Thanks,

   Leif Sawyer
