Now is Your Chance to Give
Your Company a Voice!
During the
month of November, we are gathering nominations
for leaders who will spearhead the work of our
focus areas, the Information Lifecycle Initiative
(ILMI), the Data Protection Initiative (DPI) and
the Long-term Archive and Compliance Storage
Initiative (LTACSI). Step up and give your
company a voice in influencing the
direction of your industry and work of the SNIA
Data Management Forum.
Timeline: Nominations
will be accepted through Friday November 23rd at
5pm CT - please note that November 22nd is a
holiday in the USA. Nominate someone now!
Nominations will be accepted for the
following 14 opportunities.
Self-nominations are encouraged! Ideally two
people Co-Chair each focus area, which allows for
sharing of the workload, and the continuation of
work when normal company business interruptions
occur.
ILMI - 2 Co-Chair
positions
DPI - 2
Co-Chair positions Data De-Duplication SIG - 2
Co-Chair positions
LTACSI
- 2 Co-chair positions Standards and Practices
Committee - 2 Co-Chair positions 100 Year Archive
Committee - 2 Co-Chair positions Reference Guide
Committee - 2 Co-Chair positions
Expectations: Often there
is concern regarding the amount of time required
to fulfill the expectations of these leadership
positions. Experience suggests that as an
Initiative Co-Chair, you are expected to commit 3
hours/week to advance the work of the Initiative.
Co-Chair Leadership activities
include:
- Lead and establish the agenda for a weekly
working conference call
- Lead a collaborative effort to establish
priorities
- Contribute to work projects
- Review/edit submitted work products
