Hi folks, As 2019 ramps up, Robin Muilwijk's term as an Open Organization Ambassador is winding down.
And what a special term it's been. Robin was a member of the inaugural ambassador cohort in 2015—one of four incredible people who helped us get this whole thing started nearly four years ago. As an expert in community building and management, Robin provided invaluable insight into the formation of the Open Organization Ambassadors, the community's founding charter, and its governing architecture.[1] Long-time readers will remember that Robin helped coordinate and lead the global Open Organization Book Club we launched in late 2015.[2][3] He attended the first in-person ambassadors planning and strategy meeting in Raleigh in 2016, and advocated for open principles in the organization by cleverly slipping books and companion volumes into eager hands at various companies. He was particularly interested in the ways "accountability" functions in open organizations when communities are part of a group's decision making.[4] Robin's impacts on our group, its work, and its successes are undeniable. As he drifts into the sunset in search of his next great adventure, I hope you'll join me in wishing him all the best. Thanks, Robin!
