ISDA Process Planning Kick Off Meeting
June 6, 2008
"Begin with the end in mind"
The questions we want to answer:
a. What's our communication process?
b. What's our decision making process?
- we don't always understand how decisions get made
- we don't always know what the the value is to the community
- are we asking the right questions?
- can we have a balance between management and staff in these processes? A collaborative approach that would need the managers to get the buy in
- what are the political aspects of our work? We need to take those into consideration...
- goal is to come up with "best practices" that can be tweaked for ISDA
How do we want to approach tackling this? Our process...
- work on a communication strategy first, then move on to decision making process
- each team member will answer the following questions:
- how does communication currently happen?
- what worked well and WHY?
- what did not work well and WHY?
- how would you like communication to happen?
- we will meet as a group and discuss these scenarios, then apply our suggestions to a hypothetical (Pat will draft) to see what works
- make recommendations based on hypothetical
- extrapolate out to decision making process if applicable
- present to management team
Next meeting: June 13, 2008 3pm Downtown Crossing
