Candidate video statement
Jumla ya hesabu ya maneno kwa maombi yote (yanayohitajika + maswali ya hiari) ni maneno 2500.
Je, umesoma mahitaji ya chini ya mgombea na kuthibitisha kuwa unakidhi sifa za chini kabisa na sifa zinazohitajika kwa mgombea?		Yes
Je, umesoma miongozo ya mgombea na kukubali kutii miongozo?		Yes
Maswali yanayohitajika
Maswali haya yanahitajika ili kuzingatia ombi lako kuwa kamili. Yanasaidia jamii kuamua nani wa kumpigia kura. Ikiwa sehemu hii haijakamilika kabla ya 23:59 Popote Duniani, Julai 8 (11:59 UTC, Julai 9), ombi lako halitazingatiwa. Wagombea wanatakiwa kuwa na uzoefu katika harakati za Wikimedia au harakati sawa na hizo. Wagombea wanatakiwa kuwa na uzoefu wa kuhudumu katika chombo cha pamoja cha kufanya maamuzi, kama vile Bodi au kamati na maombi yako lazima yaakisi uzoefu huu. Tafadhali kuwa mahususi uwezavyo kwa miaka uliyotumika na taarifa zingine.
Kwa nini unagombea Bodi ya Wadhamini ya Shirika la Wikimedia Foundation? Ungechangia nini? Je, ungependa kujifunza zaidi kuhusu nini?	Ninagombea kwa sababu ninajali mustakabali wetu. Kwa umuhimu wetu, maadili na Harakati. Katika nyakati za kuongezeka kwa uwekaji kati na maarifa ya otomatiki ya Akili Mnemba, ulimwengu unatarajia zaidi kutoka kwetu - bado kunahitajika uthibitishaji wa kibinadamu, uhifadhi na muktadha wa ndani. Sisi - anuwai, watu binafsi waliosambazwa na jumuiya - tunaweza kutoa mengi tukiwa na zana nzuri na kupangwa. Ninaamini ujuzi na uzoefu wangu utasaidia Shirika na Haraka kufanya kazi, kuvumbua na kufanya mambo makubwa.
Tafadhali eleza uzoefu wako na Wikimedia (kama vile michango kwa miradi ya Wikimedia, uanachama katika mashirika au washirika wa Wikimedia, shughuli kama mratibu wa harakati za Wikimedia, au kushiriki na shirika mshirika la Wikimedia).	Hai tangu 2004, ndani, kikanda na kiulimwengu. mkabidhi wa pl.wiki tangu 2005, mwanachama wa kwanza wa Kamati ya Usuluhishi ya Polandi, mtunga sera wa wiki, CEE Spring, Gender Gap na mfuasi wa mipango mingine ya uhariri. Bodi ya WMPL tangu 2012 kama makamu mwenyekiti, 2018-2022 mwenyekiti, sasa makamu mwenyekiti na katibu, mwakilishi wa WM Ulaya na Hebu ya CEE. Aina zote za shughuli za washirika wa Wikimedia kutoka kutoa mafunzo kwa wakutubi hadi ubia na utayarishaji wa hafla. Muhimu zaidi: kufanya utaalam na kukuza tawi dogo la Wikimedia ili kutoa usaidizi kwa Wanawikimedia, GLAM, Elimu, Kuchangisha Pesa na shughuli zingine pamoja na ~11 FTEs na kuweza kuhamia ED mpya kwa urahisi. Mwanzilishi mwenza wa Hebu ya CEE, kwenye Bodi hadi 2024. Mwanachama wa Kamati ya Ugawaji wa Ruzuku, aliyechaguliwa mara mbili na jumuiya za ulimwengu kutathmini na kuunga mkono tawi kubwa na WMF katika Kamati ya Usambazaji wa Fedha (asante kwa imani yenu!). Nilikuwa nikitayarisha Mkakati wa WM kwa ushirikiano katika Kikundi Kazi cha Ugawaji Rasilimali. Kisha mjumbe aliyechaguliwa wa Kamati ya Uandaaji Rasimu ya Hati ya Harakati.
Kwa mtazamo wako, Shirika la Wikimedia Foundation linapaswa kutoa kipaumbele kwa kitu gani katika miaka 3-5 ijayo, na kwa nini unaona haya kama vipaumbele muhimu zaidi?	Tunahitaji kutanguliza mustakabali wetu na kipimo cha matokeo. Mara nyingi tunabishana juu ya maelezo au kushindana kwa rasilimali ndogo, kukosa picha kubwa na kile tunaweza kuwa, kuvumbua na kufanya kazi pamoja. Teknolojia na zana za kisasa (ikiwa ni pamoja na usaidizi husika wa "AI") ili kuwawezesha wahariri wa kibinadamu na kutoa muda wao wa kufanya mambo yenye athari kubwa. Zana zinazotulinda dhidi ya mafuriko ya maudhui yanayozalishwa na AI na waigizaji wabaya. Kufanyia kazi misingi yetu ya kiteknolojia, miingiliano mipya ya mchango na usomaji, tafsiri bora ya maudhui na uratibu - kazi inayoweza kutunufaisha sisi sote, kutia moyo na kuleta wageni. Hebu au Vituo vya Umahiri vya kufanya zaidi na rasilimali chache tulizo nazo. Maono ya pamoja na uwajibikaji uliokubaliwa na sisi kwa kila mmoja.
Tafadhali eleza uzoefu wako na mabaraza ya usimamizi wa mashirika (yasiyo ya faida au ya faida), ukitaja upeo wa majukumu yako, pamoja na uchangamani wa shirika (kulingana na ukubwa wa shughuli, bajeti, idadi ya watu wanaohusika, au hatua nyingine muhimu) na ukubwa wa bodi au baraza.	Kujenga uwezo na kukuza mshirika wa Wikimedia: kuajiri, ubia, kuchangisha fedha, majukumu ya kifedha na kufuata, kutunga sera ikiwa ni pamoja na sera za BoT na wanachama, ulinzi wa kisheria na uwakilishi, mipango ya kimkakati, tathmini ya programu, usimamizi wa fedha, kuijengea ujuzi bodi na wafanyakazi, na mengi zaidi, kuiboresha kutoka hakuna ED na 1-12 FTEs hadi FTEs 1-112. Kuanzisha Hebu ya CEE, ikiwa ni pamoja na kutoa ufadhili wa fedha na Wikimedia Polska Kutathmini na kutoa mapendekezo ya kibajeti, ya kiprogramu, ya utawala kwa WMF na washirika wakubwa wa Wikimedia duniani kote. Fursa nzuri ya kufanya kazi katika kikundi tofauti, kilichojitolea. Hili pia lilinifundisha mengi kuhusu utofauti wa washirika na miktadha katika Harakati zetu, pamoja na uchangamani wa WMF.
Maswali kutoka kwa Jumuiya (lazima)
Maswali haya yaliyotokana na jumuiya. Maswali haya yanahitajika ili kuzingatia ombi lako kuwa kamili. Ikiwa sehemu hii haijakamilika kabla ya 23:59 Popote Duniani, Julai 8 (11:59 UTC, Julai 9), ombi lako halitazingatiwa.
Je, unapangaje kuhakikisha uwazi na uwajibikaji katika michakato yako ya kufanya maamuzi kama mjumbe wa Bodi ya Wadhamini?	Uwazi na uwajibikaji katika kufanya maamuzi unahitajika katika ngazi zote, na ninakubaliana na Hati ya Ziada ya Mkataba wa Harakati: Kanuni za Kufanya Maamuzi Nilitayarisha kwa pamoja Mkataba wa Harakati ambao haukubaliki. Ningependa kufanya kazi na BoT juu ya uwezekano wa kukubali na kutekeleza kanuni hizi au sawa katika ngazi ya ulimwengu. Kwa kuizungumzia BoT yenyewe, Bodi inafanya kazi kama kikundi, hivyo masuala haya yanatakiwa kukubaliana na kufanywa na kikundi. Nitafurahi kujua ni maboresho gani ambayo jumuiya zinaweza kutarajia hapa, na unaweza kuwasiliana nami kwa njia hii.
Je, ni suala gani jipya la kwanza ambalo ungependa kuleta kwa Bodi ili lijadiliwe kwa umakini, na utalishughulikia vipi?	Ni mapema mno kujua mada muhimu zaidi katika muda wa miezi 6, na Bodi mpya itahitaji kuingiza wanachama wapya, na kugawa kazi kwanza. Ninataka kutoa mapendekezo yaliyotayarishwa vizuri, hivyo majadiliano madogo na maswali juu ya hali ya mambo itakuwa muhimu. Kuhusu maeneo: ona mambo ambayo ninataka kuyapa kipaumbele kwanza (zana, teknolojia, athari), pamoja na afya ya shirika, vipimo na fedha. Mwisho kabisa, nataka kujadiliana na Bodi ni sehemu gani za Mkataba wa Harakati unaotokana na jamii na ulioidhinishwa (kwa maana mpango mzima haukukubaliwa) unaweza kupitishwa na Bodi.
Ni namna gani uamuzi kuhusu mbadala na upendeleo katika maeneo ya teknolojia au bidhaa uangaliwe	Mimi sio tu mwanachama wa bodi wa muda mrefu lakini pia mmiliki mkuu wa bidhaa na mstawishaji katika shirika changamano la kimataifa langu mwenyewe, kwa hivyo ningeweza kutoa tabaka nyingi hapa. Kwa mtazamo wa kimkakati wa WMF, swali muhimu zaidi ni rasilimali na maeneo gani unaweza kukuza, kuunda upya na kutumia kwa urahisi, na ambayo ni adimu zaidi. Katika nafasi yetu, tunaweza kujaribu kuongeza pesa zaidi lakini hatutarudisha wakati, na bila uvumbuzi tutakuwa tunapoteza watazamaji na wachangiaji haraka. Tunahitaji kutoa maarifa ya sasa (weka Biashara Kama Kawaida), na kufanyia kazi maboresho makubwa. Kwa hivyo, tunahitaji kutumia pesa kununua wakati: kuendesha miradi bunifu ya majaribio, kutoa timu sawia: kufanya kazi kwa kutumia teknolojia ya sasa, na kumfanyia kazi mpinzani, suluhisho la siku zijazo na bora zaidi. Tunapaswa kushirikiana na jumuiya za ulimwengu na kutoa fedha kwa ajili ya uvumbuzi wa ndani. Kupuuza siku zijazo ili kuokoa pesa ni akiba ambayo hatuwezi kumudu.
Idadi ya washirika wa Wikimedia imeongezeka kwa kiasi kikubwa katika miaka michache iliyopita, lakini kuhakikisha kuwa kuna rasilimali za kutosha kunaweza kuwa changamoto. Kwa kuzingatia hili, tunawezaje kufikiria upya mfumo wa ikolojia wa harakati, ikijumuisha jinsi washirika wanavyotathminiwa, shirikishwa, na kufadhiliwa?	Maelekezo matatu dhahiri zaidi, yaliyopendekezwa na Mkakati, ni: Kufanya zaidi kwa gharama nafuu na hebu - kufanya kazi katika muktadha wa ndani, uelewa bora wa mahitaji na fursa za eneo lako na mada, kutoa huduma ili watu wanaojitolea waweze kulenga kutengeneza mambo ya kuvutia badala ya kuweka hesabu, kufuata na kuendesha shirika lako mwenyewe (isipokuwa una shauku nayo, tunakuhitaji!). Wakati wa kujitolea ni wa thamani, na kazi ya shirika ni ngumu - tunapaswa kuepuka miundo isiyo ya lazima na kutuokoa kwa mambo makubwa. Kuongeza pai - uchangishaji wa ndani, kuratibiwa, kuwajibika na kusaidiwa na wataalam wetu waliopo. Uwajibikaji wa pande zote - tunasaidiana kufanya kazi kwa ustadi na ubora zaidi, kuishi katika jumuiya zenye afya, kuunda mambo mazuri kwa yale tuliyo nayo sasa - na bado kuboresha.
Afisa Mtendaji Mkuu wa Shirika Wikimedia Foundation (CEO) anapobadilika, ni sifa zipi unaamini kuwa kiongozi anayekuja anapaswa kuwa nazo, na je, hizi zinaweza kuchangia vipi katika kuendeleza harakati za Wikimedia?	Afisa Mtendaji Mtendaji Mkuu mpya atachaguliwa na Bodi ya sasa kutoka kwa chaguo zinazopatikana, na hakuna mchanganyiko mmoja kamili wa sifa. Walakini, ningependa kuona: Mwenye maono mnyenyekevu, akichora picha kubwa huku akisikiliza wadau mbalimbali na kushiriki maono haya. Kiongozi mkuu wa timu, anayejali, anayeongoza, kuweka malengo na kutathmini timu ya watendaji na wafanyikazi wakubwa. Nia ya kweli katika maarifa ya bure na kufanya ulimwengu kuwa mahali pazuri zaidi, wakati miundombinu ya maarifa inaweza kutekwa nyara na watendaji wapya.
Maswali ya hiari - Uzoefu wa Weledi, Ujuzi na Elimu
Maswali haya ni ya hiari. Majibu yatakuwa sehemu ya kikomo cha jumla ya maneno kwenye ombi lako. (Kumbusho: Hutakuwa na fursa nyingine za kutoa taarifa hii).
Tafadhali eleza uzoefu wako wa kitaaluma na uhusiano wake kwa kazi ya bodi.	For 18.5 years I work in banking: risk and finance. I combine compliance, tech and quantitative areas, having served roles from analyst and datawarehouse administrator, through principal auditor and a national subject matter expert in legislative processes, to modeller, team manager and senior product owner. Currently I work as a director in a Polish chapter of a German subsidiary of Standard Chartered - a truly multinational banking institution. My career taught me a plethora of relevant things, including: work in multinational contexts, with multiple stakeholders across cultures and organizational complexities work in high expertise areas, business analytics, software development, implementation of change, delivery and quality assurance. Both process maintainance and projects delivery and evaluation. work with stakeholders: from executive level to trainees. practical work with numbers, including finance. audit / oversight in practice - from both sides. practical work with compliance: reading and implementing the law, discussing the law. stronger practical grasp of the worlds of quant, "data-science" and technology. better practical understanding of teams and people: how they work, how they grow.
Tafadhali eleza jinsi ulivyoshughulikia, au kuwashauri wengine kuhusu, tatizo tata katika shirika. Ulifanyaje kazi na wengine kushughulikia hali hiyo? Ni mabadiliko gani yaliyotokana na juhudi zako?	Governing an organization like Wikimedia Polska is a neverending stream of complex problems - luckily evolving from very operational issues years ago to strategic decisions, compliance and organizational work with the ED and Board. This evolution from a small Board of volunteers doing great things but with own hands and on limited scale, to a resourced, stable organization with multiple programmatic areas, partnerships and apetite for more is my largest deed. Looking for problems of other organizations, we need to remember that separation or roles may be crucial. To give an example: once in the FDC, after a short research we have identified a complex problem of an affiliate, involving its board, staff and volunteers. I am glad we were first to raise this issue, point out weaknesses and pass for further work by dedicated persons. I am happy to know we did it right, and the affiliate is in a far better condition than before.
Tafadhali eleza historia yako ya elimu, ikijumuisha shahada, cheti, na kozi za masomo ulizomaliza, na uhusiano wake kwa kazi ya bodi.	I have a Master's degree in a local equivalent of MORSE (Mathematics, Operational Research, Statistics and Econometrics) in Economics of Warsaw School of Economics. There, basing on merit as well as family patience and financial sacrifice, I took my first opportunities of foreign exchanges. I made my certificate in Swedish in Helsinki, learned German in Uni Mainz in Germany - and, most importantly, was a visiting student/alumn of an exchange programme with MBA school - Anderson School of Management, UCLA - offered me generously cost free. I also took my opportunity to take (free) parallel studies thanks to my performance. Thus, I also completed curricula of a Master in Psychology (University of Warsaw), and PhD studies in economics (WSoE). My banking role required many further specialized courses as well, from accounting to programming.
Tafadhali ongeza viungo husika vinavyoelezea historia yako ya kitaaluma, uzoefu, wasifu (kama vile LinkedIn, ukurasa wa wafanyakazi, n.k.).	LinkedIn (yes, I hold this shortcut for ~20 years)
Maswali ya hiari - Uzoefu wa Uongozi
Maswali haya ni ya hiari. Majibu yatakuwa sehemu ya kikomo cha jumla ya maneno kwenye ombi lako. (Kumbusho: Hutakuwa na fursa nyingine za kutoa taarifa hii).
Tafadhali eleza njia ambazo umesaidia kuunda daraja kati ya jumuiya nyingi (kama vile kwa kufanya kazi kwenye miradi nje ya wiki yako ya nyumbani, au kufanyia kazi ushirikiano kati ya washirika wengi).	CEE Hub will be an example closest to my heart - where basing on sheer mutual trust and willingness to do great things together we started a fully grass-root, multilateral co-operation: firstly by learning from each other, than with CEE Spring, mutual help, and finally forming the hub, where Wikimedia Polska has a priviledge to serve as the fiscal sponsor. Now I am hoping the Cee Hub can share the lessons learned with the whole Movement.
Je, unaweza kuelezea sera, kwenye wiki au nje ya wiki, ambayo ulisaidia kuunda au kubadilisha? Umejifunza nini kutokana na uzoefu huu?	Changing the affiliate bylaws can be challenging but we can do it together if we listen to each other with good intentions. The same can be said about creating rules of self-policing, like implementing an Arbitration Committee on your local wiki, and setting its tone with first rulings.
Je, umewezaje kuwawezesha watu kutoa sauti zao zisikike?	Every person is unique and has something to offer - however it needs to be composed and facilitated to not turn into a cacophony. Luckily these issues are given attention in global companies as well and according to my professional team's indicate, I seem to have succeeded here.
Je, unaweza kueleza jinsi ambavyo umeonyesha uwezo wa kuwaongoza wengine katika kutatua matatizo, kukabiliana na mabadiliko au kufikia malengo, hasa katika ngazi ya uongozi au usimamizi?	The latest change in Wikimedia Polska and a fairly smooth transition from one ED to another showed resilience and organizational growth, where everyone showed they knew their role and responsibilities. Achieving this requires 1000 steps.
Maswali ya hiari - Mawazo ya kimkakati
Maswali haya ni ya hiari. Majibu yatakuwa sehemu ya kikomo cha jumla ya maneno kwenye ombi lako. (Kumbusho: Hutakuwa na fursa nyingine za kutoa taarifa hii).
Tafadhali eleza uzoefu wako wa kushiriki au kuongoza shirika katika kupanga mustakabali wake. Je, kazi yako ilichangia vipi katika kuchagua njia sahihi ya shirika?	I described the development of Wikimedia Polska from a very small Wikimedia Chapter to a 11 FTE stable organization. It has been a success story so far, which does not mean we can sit on the laurels. Quite the contrary, we need to constantly rethink ourselves and invest in our future, and the task list is long. Having said that, one step at a time. We have a long journey to make with the Wikimedia Foundation and all of us - but we cannot forget to cherish and learn from our successes, and appreciate the great people. Wikimedia Foundation is in a great position to make the change - and I am hoping I am a right person to join the BoT to do it.
