[okfn-advisory] Open Knowledge International Advisory Council - reaching out

Mon Feb 26 10:16:12 UTC 2018

Dear Naomi

Thank you for your email.

I’m open to a March call.  I’d welcome clarification and agree with many of Peter Murray-Rust’s comments.  I’ve served on a number (too many)of  Advisory Boards, from which experience I’ve inferred that the last thing that many organisations actually want is advice!

But maybe this time is different.

Best

John

They would like to reach out to you to look at how the Advisory Council can guide OKI through this period of change, refocusing on our vision and mission, and looking ahead to new opportunities.
