Administration
FERN AdministrationFERN is a volunteer-run organization. We have no membership fees, no elected positions, and a very flat admin structure. Directors serve as long as they wish and are responsible for whatever management areas or projects they wish to run. Management's job is to provide admin support, funds, and promotion for the directors and the volunteers that they work with. At present we are administered as a separate arm and with a separate bank account of the ASF nonprofit, as our work is consistent with its charitable mission.
As with many of the best nonprofits, the volunteers do the heavy lifting, hosting and running the unconference, and doing the bulk of project work. Once we have achieved a significantly larger size, budget, and profile, we'll add more formal organization, but for now, flat and simple is the rule, and for always, action over talk is the mantra.
John Smart, Garry Golden, and Frank Spencer are the current main administrators. But they'd love to have help.
If you are a social entrepreneur interested management, goal and priority setting, meetings (agendas, scheduling, and running), communications, performance monitoring, budgets, strategic plans, human resources, knowledge management, organizational development, or related topics relevant to a nonprofit foresight organization pursuing a globally important mission, please consider joining the FERN management team.
Contact johnsmart-at-accelerating-dot-org. We'd love to hear from you.
