45 minsMental Model for Governance in TOIPJohn Phillips

Shared a deck of the mental model for Governance.  This is the deck,

We cannot define guardianship. We determine a structure that enables those to be defined. 

We may choose to trust it or not. We don't impose it on the world. We create an opportunity for a better world. 



Reference material shared by Carly

Daniel Hardman's essay has been great food for thought for me. About the cost of creating hierarchies built right into our processes

Governance frameworkSavitha

Shared what governance is. 

Define the target of governance. Security? It may be an aspect of a system that goes across components. 

Metamodel from Scott provides a high-level framework for any granular elements. 

This task force is to provide the next level of guidance for TOIP solution key elements. She also shared the 4P model from IEEE. 



Discussion on John's presentationJoWe need a specific use case as an example. Define credentials associated with the use case.

Discussion on John's presentationScott

Suggested to avoid jurisdictions. Add context to the model. It defines the actions and the rules associated with them. Add span of control, which can be a jurisdiction, industry, or P2P.  

Use case example - a way to control brand. Celebrities can create VC for fans. They can define their span of control.  



Discussion on John's presentationKyle

We need to understand what we are governing for use cases and governance. It could be access to things—business processes. 

Shared a governance framework for the mining association of Canada. To become a member, you must present credentials. Link
