New membership process and milestones #40

Open ragamouf opened 2 years ago

ragamouf commented 2 years ago

Problem statement: Prepare to manage 2022 LCAG membership refresh and learn from our experience in 2021

Here is a rough outline of the steps involved in this process:

  1. Consider the process in 2021 and identify what to keep, stop doing, change or start
  2. Review the EOI form and associated rubric
  3. Make changes to ../roles-responsibilities.md or ../succession.md as per #39
  4. Review milestones below and optimise for reality / uncertainty!
  5. Make a bunch of recommendations and communicate to the LCAG

Milestone Likely Duration Suggested dates
Preparation: EOI form, rubric, documentation on website 4-6 weeks
Open up LCAG applications - publicise to networks Start date
Deadline for applications 3-4 weeks?
Deadline for review/assess applications 3-4 weeks?
Chairs contact successful applicants & start onboarding process 2 weeks
Chairs confirm new members 2 weeks
First onboarding meeting for new LCAG members May? August? Out of session?

Happy to receive your comments and suggestions. I'm not sure if I'm over-engineering the process or not!
