First draft Project Card BOP The BOP Project – Iterate Together Status: Active Partner: CodeforAmerica Brigade Leaders Location: Remote, Global Links: GitHub The Brigade Organizer’s Playbook (BOP) Project seeks to improve the existing BOP into a communal, high-value resource for sharing best practices. An updated BOP will help Brigade Organizers access, learn from, and model effective practices, which includes processes, procedures, and tools. Whether that’s how best a Brigade can recruit, organize Hack nights, run remote brigades, achieve DEI goals, and many other topics. Each Brigade is an experiment which will generate valuable learnings and new effective practices, but Brigades need not start from scratch. If we share replicable practices we can iterate on each others work, to improve outcomes for the whole network. Critical to the project’s success will be canvassing the Playbook end-user - the Brigade constituents - to understand their pains, wants, and needs. We will co-create the BOP resource directly with teams via exploratory, structured interviews. We are actively seeking the following roles:

We need some context about the bop and the brigade network....

Each of the 80+ Code for America Brigades is an experiment which generates valuable learnings and new effective processes and practices. However, Brigades need not start from scratch. This project aims to improve existing structures and create new ones that make it easier to share replicable processes and practices so that brigade members can iterate on each others work, improving outcomes for the whole network.

The Civic Tech Structure project seeks to improve the the existing Code for America Brigade Organizer’s Playbook (BOP) into a communal, high-value resource for sharing.

We will be performing an intensive UX Research phase with the BOP end users to understand their priorities, infrastructure, and potential contributions.

@ExperimentsInHonesty @MasSamH A few questions:

  1. What is the 'identification' (9 digit ID for your repo in the GitHub API) for this project?

  2. which technologies for the project should be listed on the project card?

  3. What are Sam and Naomi Chao's Slacks and GitHubs? What is Sam's last name, or should they just be listed as "Sam?"

  4. Bonnie and Naomi's CfA Member I.D.s are listed (UGREE50MT for Bonnie, U018DSK3231 for Naomi) under leadership in Bonnie's comment. Are these supposed to be included in the project card? If so, where?

MasSamH commented 4 years ago

@ExperimentsInHonesty For Ethan's request, answers to questions 2, 3, and 4. If you have answers to 1, plus any edits to those others below, I can pull together into a response for Ethan. For contributors, we should add Thad too, right?

Thanks Sam

  1. Which technologies for the project should be listed on the project card?

    • Google Docs (Doc, Sheet, Slide, Forms), HackforLA.org guides

  2. What are Sam and Naomi Chao's Slacks and GitHubs?

@Sam H Naomi Chao

What is Sam's last name, or should they just be listed as "Sam?" Sam H is fine.

  1. Bonnie and Naomi's CfA Member I.D.s are listed (UGREE50MT for Bonnie, U018DSK3231 for Naomi) under leadership in Bonnie's comment. Are these supposed to be included in the project card? If so, where?

Yes, please add to the project card. Similar in format to the page 100 automations overview

For BOP Extension Project, we would have:

Project Leadership Co-Product Manager Bonnie Wolfe CfA Member I.D. UGREE50MT Co-Product Manager Sam

Contributors Special Projects Coordinator Naomi Chao CfA Member I.D U018DSK3231

@ExperimentsInHonesty I edited the project card to be exactly like the most recent comment you put in this issue (2 paragraphs for description, wording, correct links) and used earlier comments for when information wasn't there (Ex: Naomi Chao's name for leadership). @MasSamH I also wanted to get a visual confirmation if everything here looks acceptable.

I think the contributors are empty because the repo is not tagged with hack-for-la. In addition, the given BOP CFA slack link was not working for me. It could just be on my end, so check if it works for you. Either way, besides the empty contributors arising from the repo tags and the cfa slack link, this is ready to merge. Just let me know when you would like me to.

@MasSamH sorry for getting back to you so late. I was going to add the @thadk this morning, but I noticed the Slack link was not working for me. Does it work for you @MasSamH? This is what I am met with when I visit that url: Screenshot from 2020-09-27 09-34-04

MasSamH commented 4 years ago

@KianBadie thanks for checking on that Slack link. I also get a loading error. Try this link: Slack Organizers Playbook @ExperimentsInHonesty Bonnie, for info and follow up in case I'm offer email during vacation. Thanks Sam

KianBadie commented 4 years ago

@MasSamH it looks like that link results in an error too, but it seems like you are linking to the channel you already provided as the BOP CFA slack channel, correct (it looks like there are some extra characters attached to the link you provided https://cfa.slack.com/archives/C019RCM15FEurl)? If so, we could add @thadk with the BOP CFA Slack channel as the slack link.

MasSamH commented 4 years ago

Thanks Kian. Good spot, my mistake with those extra url’ characters. Okay to remove them. See if that works? Thanks Sam

@MasSamH yes, when removing the extra characters "url" the slack channel now links to the organizers-playbook channel of Code for America :+1:
