Hi Mark,
Our discussions showed that we have little information at this point of the
election abouth the Board and ED actions over the last year. Their absence in
the discussion tend to show that they are not ready to share with the members,
that they dont agree with values of accountability to the membership.
As I expressed before, actions should be taken to assure that the membership
can better play his democratic role in the organization.
To address these problems of accountability, openess, involvement of
membership, I invite you and others to present to the membership your
philosophy of management in the organization, how you see that we can have more
accountability, mechanisisms or directions for the members to play a greater
role or otherwise why you would prefer status quo.
And surely, you should present any other elements of management of this
organization that you think are essential to reorient.
regard
Pierre

Objet : [HOT] Moving on with the Election
Dear All
I have sat back over the last few days, as have many members and watched with
interest the different posts from the different parties.
As a Voter, and a potential board member who has to work with the other people
elected to the board, I am very interested in looking toward the future, not
the past, and what the people who may be elected want to achieve for HOT the
NGO, HOT the Volunteer Community, but most importantly, for the people that we
came together to help in the first place.
The email exchanges have almost all focused on the past and only a very few
points. Yes these are important, but also, the future actions of the board are
also just as important. Any open issues will be resolved in the first month or
two. There is still another 10 or 11 months of work ahead and much to do.
In terms of any issues that have been brought to light, I am absolutely
confident that the membership is capable of electing a board who is able of
deal with what ever needs to be done in the best interests of the organization
and the membership, so lets move on to other business.
I call on all candidates to focus on the positive aspects of what THEY will do
for HOT as an elected board member and provide the voting membership with the
most information on their capabilities, ideas and visions for HOT in the coming
year.
Regards
Mark Cupitt
