Hallo,
für weitere Info siehe die folgende Quelle:
http://news.lugnet.com/announce/?n=3976Hello LEGO Enthusiasts,
We’re happy to announce that the nomination process for LEGO Ambassador Cycle 7
is now open.
The LEGO Ambassador Program is designed to give the AFOL Community a direct line
into the LEGO Company. The Program is essentially a gathering of community
representatives that speak on behalf of the larger communities they are a part
of. This group is able to bring forward the interests, concerns and questions
directly to LEGO Employees.
Who’s allowed to nominate?
Any AFOL Community Group (online or on the map) will have the opportunity to
submit nominations from their group (up to 3 people if they so choose). Not
everyone can be selected for the program in order to keep the group manageable.
If you choose to submit a nomination it does not mean that your candidate will
be chosen, but it does mean that your group will have just as much an
opportunity to get involved in having a direct representative in the LEGO
Ambassador Program. We will try to get a diverse group of people who are able to
represent the whole AFOL community as good as possible.
Groups can certainly nominate someone already in the Ambassador Program, but the
program has a two term limit in order to opportunites for more people to be
involved. After a term out of the program, a previous Ambassador can be
re-nominated (this rule only started with cycle 6 so all current Ambassadors are
still eligible).
A group that submits a nomination for the LEGO Ambassador program should be
established and known within the LEGO Community.
What should a nomination have in it?
• Name and age of the nominee.
• Where is the nominee from?
• Which Group does this nominee represent?
• Does this person consent to being nominated (Please do not submit a nomination
on behalf of someone you have not discussed with
beforehand).
• Explanation of who the nominees are, what their activities are, and why they
would be a good representative of their community
(at least 3 testimonials from members of nominating group are required)
• Key interests of the nominee (themes, building styles, and some examples of
their building)
NEW!!!
• Platform – The nominations should now include a list of the goals that the
nominee and the community he/she represents are looking
to accomplish as part of the program. Remember the LEGO Ambassador Program is
all about the AFOL community having
representation into the LEGO Group, so this is an effort to have you think ahead
as to what you really think would benefit your
communities the most.
When is the Nomination Due?
July 1, 2009 by midnight GMT. If a nomination is received after this time it
will be automatically rejected.
The new cycle will be announced on approximately July 8, 2009.
Who Should the Nominations be sent too?
Nominations should be sent directly to steve@lego.com
What might a LEGO Ambassador be committing too?
• LEGO Ambassadors are committing to represent their communities interests to
the LEGO Group.
• There are projects that Ambassadors can take part in, it is up to the
individual to decide what they may or may not be interested in
working on. It all comes down to how they feel they can best represent their
community.
• Online discussions will be held for the Entire group of Ambassadors that will
include members of the LEGO Community Team and
other LEGO Employees as well.
• In order to get the most out of the program you should be willing to give some
time to in order to help discussions along.
If you don’t give time to it then you may not be dishonoring the nomination you
received from the community.
There is no NDA requirement to take part in the LEGO Ambassador Program for
Cycle 7. There may be an instance where a special project will come up and the
Ambassadors may have to sign an NDA to participate in that, but it will take
place in a separate forum in order to limit confusion as to what can be said
outside of the Ambassador program. Otherwise, anything shared in Ambassador
Discussions can be shared with the AFOL Community.
This next session of the Ambassador Program will last approximately one year.
Thank you all. Your nominations are very valuable for helping the LEGO Community
Team choose the next round of LEGO Ambassadors.
