10 years ago Following up from Last night's Mumble Meeting, it was observed:
I clarified the safety group email - Steve is vocally in support but others are cynical. Basically we have a green light to move forward as intended, but we need to put some effort into selling the implementation.
Note: Booklet 5 of the CASA SMS resource kit has the introductory Blurb:
Good communication is vital for an effective SMS. If the boss keeps everyone in the loop on safety issues, and in turn, listens to what employees have to say, the SMS will be much more effective. Equally, part of an effective SMS is ensuring employees have the skills and knowledge they need. Booklet 5 (1.87MB) therefore focuses on the 'safety training and promotion' part of an effective SMS.

I guess when we figure out how to deal with the cynicism, we can document it in our own "Training and Promotion Strategy" that's part of our SMS.
As a self-organising meritocracy, we don't have a "boss". But we do need a communication strategy that:
- keeps everyone in the loop
- listens to what everyone has to say
We also need to ensures that everyone has skills and knowledge they need.
These things should be addressed in the Safety Team's TOR.

We have conversational concensus for our activities with a number of CanberraUAV members.
I think we need a more "official" mandate. Suggest this approach:
1) to have an "on the agenda" discussion on mumble and/or the public list, where everyone has clearly had an opportunity to voice their opinion about what we are doing. 2) Create a "CanberraUAV Safety Team 2014/15 - Terms Of Reference" document (single page) that has broad consensus from the open discussion. 3) Seek "official endorsement" from the CanberraUAV committee, of the TOR document. 4) Create the web page (#2), publically anounce it to the mailing list (and possibly DIY Drones, etc)
