No, the managers will be voting, and in relative privacy. However all people have the opportunity to nominate others. If you are nominated that means you are taken into consideration. We also want arguments on why this person should be nominated in your view. After all people have been nominated (managers can nominate too) I will post a list of all nominees. I will however not post all reasons why they should be nominated, or how many people nominated them. They everyone has a chance to tell the management team why certain people should not be chosen as desktop lead. After that the management team will discuss the nominees and vote who we prefer, and, if we think that person is qualified (so it could theoretically be that no-one is elected). Here I assume that the management team can manage itself well enough such as not making the vote a popularity contest, but that actual qualifications are taken into account.
