Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikimédia France Governance review

Thank you Asaf. This seems to be a mixture of ppl mgmt and org skills,
shifted heavily towards the latter. The last time I was at wmcon was 2014
[1] when this was bearly a topic at all, only touched it here and there a
bit, when it was inevitable.

Good to see the progress on this.

Hi Mike,

perhaps in the future one could undergo such a review before a crisis
happens. Like a medical checkup, not yearly thoufh, but say every 3-5 years
to prevent/treat in early stage such events.

So far all governance reviews (including this) were responses to a collapse.

Nominally, the WMF is going to be the next Wikimedia organisation to do a 
governance review, as per:

Wikimedia conference in recent years have indeed been putting more and more
of an emphasis on people skills and governance skills.  Learning Days[1]
and the pre-conference Board  Training[2] at this year's WMCON are one
example, but regional and national conference have been seeing more
interest in these skills too.

2018-07-09 Thread Alphos OGame
Forgive my (usual ?) bluntness, but I don't think congratulations are in order 
for undertaking the governance review ;-)

As a member and unwilling observer, I can tell you it was dearly needed, be it 
by internal or external auditors, and mandated by the WMF.

However, as a long time member of the community and of Wikimedia France, I do 
salute the effort of publishing the results of the review, as the previous 
board of directors probably wouldn't have wanted to publish anything critical 
of their method of governance ; and the review covers both old and more recent 
times.
That indeed deserves credit, so thank you Nadine !

@ Cornelius : smart thinking on your part, collecting them in one place. I hope 
there won't be any more crisis requiring a governance review in one of our 
chapters, but in any case it will be interesting for all chapters to know what 
to avoid in the future, and where to look for it, so thank you as well.

Roger / Alphos

Congratulations to Wikimedia France for undertaking this review and
publishing the results.

I believe all of the 3 governance reviews are important reading for
anyone involved with the WMF or any of the affiliates, and all have
important lessons for the movement. It's interesting to note that this
is the first one that touches on the WMF-affiliate relationship in
much detail.

Also - while so far governance reviews have only happened as a result
of a crisis, this doesn't have to be the case! I would urge Wikimedia
affiliates to take external advice on their governance, the
suggestions offered by governance experts who know the laws, norms and
cutlure in which you operate will be very helpful for you.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikimédia France Governance review

2018-07-09 Thread David Cuenca Tudela
Hi Nadine,

Thanks for sharing the document with us. I read it and I found interesting
to see the different clashes:

- there is no awareness of the individual interpretations of our mission

- the community wants anarchism in order to feel free, however the
organization needs some kind of structure and specialization to be effective

- lobbing, advocacy, and governance are necessary for the community, but
since they are "invisible" activities, they are not valued by the community

- there is a big wish for openness in the community, however governance
requires some privacy as well

- employees can have too much influence in any organization if they
participate, but it is unfair to exclude them

- the WMF exercises power over the movement organizations, but the
organizations cannot exercise power over the WMF, creating a power
unbalance and mistrust

Besides of the recommendations on the document, it feels that there is the
need for more dialogue with involved parties to create a mutual
understanding. In the end it is a matter of trust, we can only trust
something if we know it, and if we understand the benefits that it creates
for us. I hope these topics are discussed in the Movement Strategy.

Regards,
Micru
