Dear Ben,
Apologies as I'm unable to attend tomorrow night's meeting as I have a
preexisting engagement which I was unfortunately unable to move.
Please find my initial thoughts below for what they may be worth.
* Overall Principles:
1) Keep the groups, small, simple, nimble and focussed, expand as the
need arises.
2) Define Strategic 'Success' and orientate tactical efforts to
achieve it.
e.g.
Strategic Success = Creative Commons is the preferred and most visible
licensing scheme for online creative content in HK.
Tactic = Creative Commons is actively used by all of HK's Tertiary
Institutions by 2009.
* I think two functionally different tiers should be sufficient to
provide guidance, support, structure and legitimacy to our efforts.
---- Tier A: Executive Committee - Focus on Management and Operational
Issues
Size: A small (5-7 person max) committee of committed individuals
who are able to respond in a timely fashion to email and regular face-
to-face meetings.
Main Function: To provide week-to-week, timely guidance to help
'staff' make informed operational decisions when facing operational
issue as they arise.
Duration: Probably till 2-3 months after launch, i.e. to the end of
2008.
Focus:
1) Fleshing out management and operational issues which are
encountered 'to launch' and 'post launch'.
2) Draft an initial 2-3 year Strategic Plan for HKCC to be proposed to
larger Advisory Board
Level of Engagement: High
Paid Position: No.
--- Tier B: Larger Advisory Board - Strategic Issues
Size: Depends on how many 'constituencies' are thought necessary to
be represented, with perhaps 2 delegates per constitutency, together
with how many 'rock stars'/luminaries
e.g. Licensor Perspective, Licensees Perspective, HKIT Sector, Legal,
Academic etc.
Probably 8+1 to start with (i.e. 4 constituencies + 1 Mgmt)
Main Function: To provide strategic guidance to HKCC
Duration: 2 years terms
Ideally individuals would serve a 2 year staggered terms, with
initially one delegate having a 1 year term.
Focus:
1) To evolve and ratify the 2-3 year Strategic Plan
2) Fund Raising
3) Help communicate and promote HKCC by lending their personal
credibility, experience, stature and relationships to ensure HKCC's
long-term success.
Level of Engagement: Low/As needed or time permits
Paid Position: No, but travel budget may be provided dependent on
funding.
