Discussion Items

Continuing the discussion about the survey results
Review/reminder of the timeline for the next few months
Starting today on Slide 18 - Question #1 Principles
- Good support, but high percentage of neutral/negative
- 'Principles' beget 'Practices' - they matter!
- Q: Would it make sense to adopt and enhance something like the OpenStand.org principles: because they seem aligned
  - https://open-stand.org/about-us/principles/
- Q: We have the problem of 'lists' - risk of missing important ones that will become exclusionary
- Focus on the 2nd sentence of the principles: "We succeed when members have equal access to opportunities: to learn, to work, to teach, to share and to apply with integrity, best current practice to the body of knowledge appropriate to the relevant societal norms, regulations and industry contexts."
  - Q: Instead of 'knowledge' shouldn't this read 'work' instead?
  - Q: what if we remove "body of knowledge"
  - Q: How do we emphasize 'keep up to date' - is 'current' sufficiently strong?
  - ACTION: ACH Post the Q1 thread & updated phrase to the DG list
Question 4: What should the organization offer?
- Today - initial discussions
- Note that the overall collection of results could be read as opinions of mid-late career professionals - we must take care that we ensure that 'new-to-id-profession' people find the association attractive - other associations 'patch' or 'add on' features for new starters instead of integrating with all activities. e.g. we might reserve a seat on all committees for a <5 year career person instead of having a 'student chapter' function exclusively
- The list will change over time - to adapt to priority and member needs
- "Advocacy" item
  - Is this lobbying? Other?
  - Is it 'outreach'
  - It is about keeping the external communications front and center to help decision makers and other influencers be ready for what is developing in the industry - help to 'mainstream' the newer ideas that are viable
  - Need to keep outreach to associations of other industries in mind
- "Standards development orgs" item
  - Is this a surprising response?
  - This kind of activity allows members to get involved at a higher level than otherwise possible. It lets experts to get more direct influence and advice to the national bodies - good engagement.
  - Sometimes standards might make sense from a technical perspective, but do not mesh with business realities. More direct access could help make standards more effective/adoptable.
  - Overall: the group feels that the association has expertise that should/could be very useful to standards development organizations and perhaps is not being tapped sufficiently
  - Other associations do mappings and crosswalk publications between standards and regulations - to help practitioners to address real world topics
  - Today, lots of the public policy work is actually happening above standards work. Being an association could help to influence at the top levels.
- "Networking of Us"
  - Online forums for information sharing
    - Should these online forums be private to members?
      - Yes there should be member-only places
      - Yes there should be open-access places too
    - Should Vendors be in the same spaces as individuals and builders?
      - Yes - for the openness of discourse
      - Some vendors could be uncomfortable sharing openly - it will vary
      - We could have specific channels for commercial/marketing messages - to inform members/community in a 'safe' place
      - We will need a Code of Conduct for any channels that are offered
  - In Person opportunities
    - The normal conferences, summits, events
    - We must deliberately choose the modes of interaction: for example teaching conferences are a different type of engagement than 'typical' conferences
    - Look at 'tacking on' ID Pro meetings to other events
Nominations period closed
Stay tuned to the list for Voting information to come soon
