Taking our mid-year pulse - what’s going well? what (if anything) needs some help? is there anything we want to make sure we don’t lose sight of during the second half of the year?

All

• Encouraging to see teams distributing work and getting everyone involved

• Encouraging that new members have been willing to take on vice lead roles

• In general, getting people involved earlier will have a positive impact

• It’s good to see people being mindful of documentation and other things that make it easier for progress to continue smoothly from term to term

Anything else?

• Question about suggesting someone for Councils outside nomination period

  • When processes are working, it’s good to stick to them. Encourage person to volunteer through the regular nomination process.
