Proposed structure for future MRAC meetings December meeting to include: Harvest the learning from the year –What worked? –What didn't work? –What to keep and what to change for the next year? Incorporate upcoming chapter leaders on this call so they can also benefit from the learning as they take the reins in the new year. Last 30 minutes of MRAC monthly meeting: Short check-ins of ongoing projects and initiatives of the MRAC SIG/committee reports can be used to report back to MRAC Best practice is to provide updates and clear agenda requests for any group discussion at least 1 week in advance
