There are two positions open to fill out the Global Steering Committee, and so we'd like to start taking application letters from anyone who is interested.

Our previous structure has not quite panned out as we'd like, so we're trying something slightly different this year, and not worrying about regional reps so much. (Instead, we'll all think globally.) We'll continue to have a representative from Equality Now, hope to have the representation of a former GO/GEC, and most likely ask the next GEC to be on the Committee as well.

The two new roles elected will continue to be for 2-yr positions, to maintain continuity (which is especially important when the Global Team changes each year). Jen and I are staying on for Year 2 of our terms, and Anne Barringer is stepping off the committee. Mandy is still the rep for EN. [Once members of the committee are in place, internal elections for chair, vice-chair and secretary (and whatever else may be determined) will be held.]

Eligibility Requirements: Applicants must have been a past GO, a past screening event Organizer, or Global Team member (Affiliate event organizers are not eligible).

Application Process: Applicants must send in
• A letter that covers relevant skills and experience, and includes current contact information (including screen names used).
• Two Letters of Recommendation; may be from any of the following: a Global Steering Committee member, a Global Team member (past or current), an Event Organizer (Screening or Affiliate), or Event Team Member (for the event the applicant was Organizer of).

Application Deadline: Please send in your letters by Sunday, October 31, 2010. We will post input from all eligible candidates on Monday for Organizers to review and ask questions of you. This Q&A period will be open for one week.

Selection Process: A poll will be opened on Monday, November 8, and will close on Sunday, November 14. This year, voting will be limited to current year city Organizers of Screening events and Affiliate events, and will be decided by a two-thirds majority.

As a reminder, the Global Steering Committee is responsible for:
•Ensuring consistency of purpose for the event.
•Organizing and overseeing the election of the Global Event Coordinator, and ensuring that handover goes smoothly.
•Preparing Global Policies. These are policies shall be developed prior to selection/election and as required at the request of the Global Event Coordinator/Global Team.
•Specifying and advising on changes to procedures to be published in the "Global Event Coordinator’s How To Guide", the "Global Team Handbook", and the city "Organizer’s How To Guide".
•Setting the Event Window and Key Deadlines (including Registration and Global Tally finalization).
•Ensuring the history of the event is documented and maintained.

Please send your application letters, and letters of recommendation to: gsc@cantstoptheserenity.com . Thank you very much!
