What is the expected time commitment needed to serve on the Board of Directors?
The basic responsibilities of an ICANN Director require a commitment of time roughly equivalent to a full day every two weeks, exclusive of any work on Board Committees. The time spent in these basic responsibilities is typically clustered around Board meetings and teleconferences. Directors spend additional time in connection with their work on Board Committees, a commitment which varies in relation to the number of Committees on which they serve, the scope of the Committees’ responsibilities, and their role as Chairman or Member of the Committee. The range of time spent by Directors during the last year has been roughly from 15% to 40%, and much more for those serving on the Evolution and Reform Committee.
