It would definitely be worth I think to have a meeting where not only
the Board of Directors but also the Board of Trustees (TDF members)
_participates_. And that would need preparations, is my first feeling.
Unless I'm missing something, the Board of Trustees includes already all
the informally called "members" (AKA Board of Directors + Membership
Committee + Members).
Yes, that is what I meant to say. Board of Trustees is the official name
for TDF members. And obviously members of the BoD are TDF members too.
If your proposal Cor is to allow the participation of the full Board of
Trustees and not only the Board of Directors I think it will be also
important to consider the possibility to have this workshop in its
hybrid version, giving to the whole Board of Trustees a chance to
participate (not only in person but also from remote).
It is important to have broad input, from basically anyone. However when
the board discusses an items, that may have a dynamic that is different
from when the 'general community' talks about the same. If only because
of the number of people involved.
So I think it just makes sense to prepare these meetings. Get e.g. a
(broad) sense of questions that live, think about a sensible order to
discuss, possibly invite (not force) people to share questions and ideas
in advance, share some background info.. Such things. I think there is
no blue print that fits every topic. So starting preparing early enough
with 2, 3 people and gradually broadening that, could be useful.
Then others joining, in the sense of being present more than actively
involved, could be considered too.
...this sounds to me that community members not part of the Board of
Trustees can't really participate but only "listen" but as I wrote
before I'm probably missing the full picture here.
I don't want to exclude anyone, but it does not seem unnatural that
members are a bit more involved somehow?
I would say, we're on our way finding out what works best in this case.
Does that make sense to you?
Cheers,
Cor
