Phil, Thanks for putting this together. I think the spirit of the recommendation is right.
Regarding the last phase, that implies that the TSC would get involved in voting to "waive this recommendation". However, if this is only a policy (not in the charter) and only a recommendation, I'm not sure we want to imply that the TSC would vote on this. I suggest leaving out the last sentence. Perhaps the second-to-last sentence could list some exceptions: ", such as a subcommittee (vice) chair election that has no other candidates". Thoughts?

Updated wording with suggested change below: Leadership Diversity Policy We as a community wish to foster a breadth of knowledgeable and engaged leaders, as well as ensure an ongoing diverse set of viewpoints across the ONAP Project. In support of this goal, we recommend that a single individual should not hold more than one Chair, or Vice Chair position concurrently on the TSC and all other TSC Subcommittees. There may be situations warranting an exception to this policy. On a case-by-case basis the TSC may determine to waive this recommendtion as appropriate. Best, Phil.

One slight quibble is that you use the word “recommend” in the second sentence and “requirement” in the fourth. I think we should be consistent. My personal preference is for recommendation.

To that end, please consider this an attempt to get an email dialog going that will hopefully lead to us voting on what to say and where to put it. From discussions that we've had... and I'm sure some level of personal bias from me, I suggest the following as a Policy (not part of the TSC-Charter) to be posted on the TSC Policies and Guidelines Page: Leadership Diversity Policy We as a community wish to foster a breadth of knowledgeable and engaged leaders, as well as ensure an ongoing diverse set of viewpoints across the ONAP Project.

As a general question to all, given that these appear to read as guidelines, - do we want to include them in a charter; or create a TSC policy document where we can capture such things and others (i.e. information for decision should be submitted x days in advance). The advantage of including the update in the charter is that it would be more consistant. The advantage with a separate TSC policy document is that we separate guidelines from mechanisms.

It was recommended that this may be better adopted as a policy, rather than as an amendment to the TSC Charter. Leadership Diversity Intent We as the ONAP community, should identify and train talents to help promote leadership diversity within projects, subcommittees, etc. •Develop a broad base of community leaders from many backgrounds •Instill a sense of trust and openness to multiple view points •Ensure an adequate representation of the community •Distribute responsibilities in a scalable fashion •Allow exceptions where appropriate to keep both the community and project moving forward Leadership Diversity Meaning •An individual can either be in any of these leadership positions: -the TSC Chair/Vice-Chair -a Subcommittee Chair/Vice-Chair -a Community Coordinator -a PTL •No individual should hold more than one of those roles unless the TSC deems there is either a high level of merit in doing so, or no reasonable alternative. •A logical location in the TSC Charter for introducing this language would be in Section 1: Guiding Principles NOTE: It was pointed out that a number of sections within the charter would need to be changed if Section 1 was used. Leadership Diversity Language 1.3 Leadership Diversity 1.3.1 Any one person should only be allowed to hold a single office at a time, inclusive of TSC, Subcommittee, Coordinator and PTL positions. 1.3.2 Exceptions can be made by the TSC for someone to hold multiple positions if there are insufficient candidates available for a position, or in cases where doing so would be bring high value to the project.
