Hi,
If they are both so experienced as you say, tell me why there are not
already more Ambassdors in their countries, nobody has to be mentor to win
new people.

HI,
I know that is not the right list to discuss mentors/mentoring
problems, but I thought that as ambassadors opinion also matters to
have more right people on board. The another reason is why I have
targeted this list is that I haven't got any response on other mailing
list since months. Simply I would like try to deal with language
barriers and mentors coverage with the candidates. I know that english
is mandatory, but how can you reach more skilled people if you doesn't
allow that regions get strength? In EMEA, I would like to care with
the Africa region a bit such way that keep active ambassadors there
and let them build local communities there - and have mentors in
between mentor to them as relay, as entry point if we want healthy
African region - of course at least speaking arabic plus english. Also
I see we don`t have spanish speaking mentor, that can also mean
problems.
Currently I think we don't have enough people, as few of them only
limited to just for UK, or left/not active/long time inactive in EMEA.
Just read the current list of EMEA mentors, and the number 12 quickly
shrinking to 4-6 people that only covers mostly EU, and that's all.
But we don't have African mentor, and I think would help greatly to
have both guys with the right permissions.
