Agenda for inaugural meeting of action co-ordination team

All action team co-ordinators become members of the action co-ordination team.

The purpose of the action co-ordination team is to monitor progress and keep everyone informed of what’s happening (and what’s not happening).

Agenda

• Appoint a lead co-ordinator.  The role of the lead co-ordinator is:
  • to ensure that reports of progress across all action team projects are distributed regularly to all interested parties (including management and those who did not take part in the Open Space event)
  • to act as a central point of contact
• Agree how and when you will communicate with each other
• Decide how you will keep everyone informed of progress across all action team projects Your first communication task is to inform everyone of your decisions
• Ideally a member of the formal management team joins the action co-ordination team as an equal member. Groundrules are established to ensure that all members of the team have an equal voice.

Time available: 15 minutes
