After much discussion over several years, we decided early 2016 to create a Council to help manage the Disorient project worldwide.

What is the Disorient Council?

1. Disorient Council
1.1. Role – Discuss big issues and make decisions as needed.
1.2. Checks & Balances – The Council is Disorient's Congress, the Directors are Disorient's Executive body. Directors can overrule the decisions of the Council.

2. Members of the Disorient Council
2.1. Number of members - There is a total of eleven active members. Three (Leo, The Eye and Ted) are permanent members, eight are elected members. We strive for diversity across levels of seniority.
2.2. Term – Members are elected for a two-year term, with half (4) of the elected members rotating in and out each year. Rotating members can choose to serve for a second consecutive two-year term.
2.3. Nomination of a new member – During the Month of May, Council members nominate someone within Disorient.
2.4. Election of a new member – During the month of June, the current Council votes internally to fill open spots from list of nominees. Once elected, each nominee is invited to become a member.
2.5. Members’ responsibilities - Council members are required to participate to the Council discussions on Asana (https://app.asana.com/0/110032099192743/) and to the Council meetings which are usually internet calls.
