So here's a summary of what ISC2 is changing in its Bylaws and why you should vote NO in the upcoming Bylaws vote. Hold on to your wigs:
1/ The board will no longer have elections. Instead they will propose a slate of candidates equal to the number of open seats. They still call it an election, but it is officially a coronation. #VoteNo
2/ The board drops the Ethics Committee as a standing committee of the board. Rumor has it that the board will offload Ethics to management. I can't summarize how bad this is. #VoteNo
3/ The board is increasing the number of endorsements needed for a petition from 500 to 1% of the membership. It's already impossible to get to 500. It's unthinkable anybody would make it to 1600-2000. #VoteNo
4/ There are a lot of other small tweaks and changes that are detrimental to the association and the profession. I don't want to bore you all but if you're still a member of ISC2, this is your cue to #VoteNo
5/ It looks like this will be one vote for all changes. Not a vote per change. Given the three items listed here, there is no reason to vote yes.
6/ They’re making the chair an officer of the company. that gives them all rights to act individually in the name of the company. Imagine someone with a 4 year tenure allowed to make any and all decisions for almost 200.000 members. It’s redonkulous.
