Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Hiring of Executive Manager for Wikimedia India
Hi Naveen May I suggest that some experience in collaborative working be included in the specs. It is not a 'natural' skill, especially not (in my experience) when working with digital media, which I notice is one of the needs, and is not a skill directly rewarded in Old World organisations. No matter how excellent the report(s) produced, this community in particular wants to be involved.
