10. A STATEMENT INDICATING YOUR IDEAS, INTENTIONS AND/OR THE REASON WHY YOU CONSIDER YOU SHOULD BE ELECTED TO SERVE IN THE ICANN BOARD (NO MORE THAN 500 WORDS):
The next 24 months will see the birth of the domain name management services industry. In order for competitors to successfully emerge, we must work together to inspire changes that will give us the tools we need to survive and succeed. I offer ICANN a strong voice for change. If elected I will dedicate myself to communicating a unified voice with a consistent philosophy that is both responsive and convincing. The months ahead will be difficult as we continue to overcome a carefully developed strategy of passive resistance to change. I have the experience and skills to represent us and promise to be a strong force for our common interests.
Among the many issues I will address if elected, the important issues are as follows:
I pledge to effectively represent the views of the Registrar's and communicate our concerns with strength and clarity. I have the experience and creative skills to both contribute solutions and make the difficult decisions that need to be made if we are to create a level playing field for domain name registration services.
Your continued support throughout this initiative will give us the momentum we need to succeed.
Jason Hendeles, ATC
