'''Target audience''': high-potential creative coders / Mozilla contributors, plus funders<br>
'''Create leaders who are committed to teaching and building the future of the web'''. Because
* a) they're central to delivering and improving the quality of our programs,
* b) helping talented people understand Mozilla’s values and methods helps them shape companies, schools and organizations beyond Mozilla
* c) it’s needed if we want to do ‘participation at scale’
'''We already do a lot to develop these leaders at Mozilla'''. e.g.,
* building up and mentoring regional leads through ReMo
* ‘experiential professional development’ via Hives
* fellowships via Open News and Mozilla Advocacy
* LEAD and TRIBE for Mozilla employees.
'''Webmaker Leaders Program'''
* We will run an experiment in Webmaker in 2015 aimed at a) taking the best from a variety of Mozilla leadership development efforts and b) building up stronger Webmaker leaders.
* This will include, in collaboration with ReMo, rolling out a Webmaker Leaders program.
* If funding can be secured, a Webmaker Fellows program will be designed based on the Open News model.
'''In parallel, we will explore whether there's value in developing a consistent collection of leadership development offerings for a wider network within and beyond Mozilla'''. This will include working with the fellows / labs / ReMo programs to look at common approaches and needs.
By Q3, we will release an initial discussion paper re: can and should we Mozilla Community Leadership Institute based on our existing efforts in this space? If there is interest in the idea, this paper will be used to seek large scale outside funding for this initiative.
