[gnso-policyimpl-wg] RE: P&I WG Self-assessment

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to the seven WG members who have completed the self-assessment.  That is 
very much appreciated.  But that is less than 18% of the WG members so the 
results would not be very representative of the full WG.

I want to sincerely encourage more of you to complete the self-assessment.   
Remember that the questionnaire is slated to be disabled at the end of Monday, 
3 August.

So far only two people have completed the self-assessment and one of those was 
me.  I hope that all of you can find time to do this so that we have good data 
to use to evaluate our WG.

Thanks in advance for doing this.

Policy & Implementation Working Group Members:

In 2014, the GNSO Council adopted a process and questionnaire for Working 
Groups to conduct Self-Assessments when their work has been substantially 
finished. The goal is to provide Chartering Organizations, such as the GNSO 
Council, important information about how well its Working Groups are 
functioning through an examination of their Inputs -> Processes -> Outputs 
ultimately leading to continuing improvements.

Our Working Group has been identified to participate in this process the 
details of which are provided below:


  *   The survey tool is hosted by QuestionPro at this link: 
http://policy-implem.questionpro.com<http://policy-implem.questionpro.com/>. 
Please do not share this link with anyone other than our team members.
  *   Background information and instructions are contained within the 
instrument. There is no login requirement, so you will not need user 
credentials.
  *   Simply answer the questions (most use a 1-7 rating scale) on each page 
and, when you reach the end, click "Record My Answers!" If you receive a "Thank 
You" response, your feedback was successfully populated. There is a provision 
to <Save and Continue Later> if you are interrupted and cannot finish the 
survey in one session.
  *   Based upon previous WG experiences, the survey should take between 10-20 
minutes depending upon the number of comments you choose to provide.
  *   If you would like to browse the questions in advance, they are published 
on the ICANN Community Wiki at: https://community.icann.org/x/nTXxAg.
  *   The survey will be open for two weeks and will close on: 3 August 2015 
(23:59 UTC)

An external ICANN consultant, Ken Bour 
(ken.bour@xxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:ken.bour@xxxxxxxxxxx>), will monitor the 
completion process, provide brief status updates to us and Lars, and be 
available to provide technical assistance if needed by any of our team members. 
He will also be the only person who has access to your individual responses 
according to the following clause which you will see on the questionnaire 
welcome page:

Confidentiality: We will be asking you for identifying information to ensure 
that each response is valid. Your individual responses will not be accessible 
by anyone other than the ICANN Staff Administrator and they will not be 
disclosed, archived or published in a way that could be matched to your 
identity.

Once the survey period has closed, Ken will produce a report summarizing the 
findings which will be shared with our team, the GNSO Council, the Stakeholder 
Groups, Constituencies, and other interested parties.

We appreciate your willingness to provide feedback about the Policy & 
Implementation Working Group and your participation in it.

Regards,
Chuck Gomes
