Fantastic job - thank you Linda for taking in all the suggested edits and
revisions and producing this draft.
Many thanks to one and all for the input, mindful suggestions, and effort.
I will await your final document, the Deirdre-ready draft, Linda, when everyone
has had a final say.
I have no more to add to this document.

Thanks everyone for the timely comments. Here is the latest draft of the JD.
Changes made:
1. Removed “When signed…” from first paragraph.
2. Changed verb forms throughout.
3. Added “The Artistic Director shall:” at beginning of Section A.
4. Did not change #2, except for verb forms. (Rory, the Music Committee has
no business deciding when and what Deirdre can add to our repertoire for the
year. If she presents too few pieces at the beginning of the year, then the
Music Committee can step in immediately and insist on getting more music
ASAP. If she still doesn’t comply, then we can take more drastic action. In
other words, we need to educate the Music Committee that they are responsible
for pressing the AD, if need be, to get a fairly complete music list before
the start of the concert year, and that the Board will back them up.)
5. “proposed concert dates" added to #3.
6. Compensation text added to #5 & #6.
7. Removed “that she deems…"
8. I think #9 is needed. I added a second part to the sentence. Let me know
if you still think it should be removed.
9. #12 - I removed “invited” so solicit is no longer redundant.
I’m going out for a bit. I will check for your comments and finish this draft
when I get home this evening.
Margaret, I’ll send you a separate doc with just the AD on it for forwarding
to Deirdre.
Linda
P.S - Has anyone heard from Fernando? Hope he’s OK.

Here are my modifications for the Job Description.
PLEASE NOTE: I am not looking at the final contract wording until the job
description is agreed upon by us and Deirdre.
One change of note I made: I gave the AD complete control over rejecting a
singer. I removed the part about not being able to bring them up to speed.
I don't think she needs to justify rejecting someone. If we don't like
those decisions, we can replace the AD. Otherwise I think that is
micromanaging.
Thanks.
Rory
