Vision for the future
I propose a focus on defining clear goals and effective processes
Goals:
Address market needs – driven by marking input
Limit the scope of what we authorize so it directly addresses these needs
Processes:
Current selection processes promote conflict and “kitchen sink” compromise. Instead we should be willing to try alternative such as promoting early mergers or “let the market decide”.
We are rules-heavy. We should only keep rules that work for us.
We should meet an expected response time for any management process (e.g. a guaranteed 2 days for releasing a ballot or 1 day for putting a draft on the server)
“Matrix” job sharing – each person performs more than one role, and each role can be performed by more than one person. Document and checklist common functions.
More administration can be automated – reducing error and delay
