    In theory the proposal should work but, if implemented will have its own deficiencies.

    The underlying issue one should look at is the absence of an organization purpose.

    One of previous comments of the last board 2018-2019 was the difficulty of a new board to operate with a complete turn-over.  This proposition resolves that issue by only having half the turn-over. 

    An additional benefit of having continuing board members is to be able to create project continuity without the theoretical deadline of a one year term.

    Speaking as the "long term corporate memory", I'm not clear on how only changing or retaining half the board improves the long term memory? 

    Unless long term is considered only 4 years, which strikes me as a tad short.

    I would think meeting minutes and email archives would better serve corporate memory... or possibly long standing members.

    One of the challenges we have faced is the changeover in Executive and the lack of long-term corporate memory.  We can reduce this by changing terms of office to two years with half of the Board elected each year.  The first year that this is implements, half the Board would stand for a one year term, and the other half would stand for a two year term.  In accordance with the first proposal, this will mean that the Board can assign officer positions based on who sits on the Board at any given time.
