Summary
Highlights
The meeting starts with a tight schedule from 2:30 to 3:00. Morgan is assigned as the minute-taker for this meeting, with Amy taking minutes for the next one, providing an opportunity to hone minute-taking skills.
Emma sends her apologies for not attending due to another meeting. Charles is late as he was seen making tea, but the meeting proceeds without him due to time constraints.
Morgan shares updates on his blog, apprentice networking events, and error-free reports. Amy announces the 'Welcome to Kill' event is at full capacity and needs to be set up. Charles provides an update on the project plan, inviting feedback. The meeting leader shares an update on new training and a strategic update to be given at a wider team meeting in a couple of weeks.
Attendees reviewed the OD operating plan, a dynamic document for planning the year's provision. A question arose about how it meets appraisal objectives; tasks within the document are individual and will be integrated into wider appraisal objectives.
Amy reports that the OD website is due to go live next month, continually updating with program events and workshop schedules. Attendees are asked to review it for any issues or inquiries. Morgan is tasked with recording this as an action item for everyone.
Morgan provides an update on workshop numbers for the coming month: Inclusivity (10 booked), Assertiveness (12 booked), Excellent Reduction (3 booked), Career Planning (8 booked), and Project Management (fully booked with 5 on waiting list). The leader suggests reviewing 'Excellent Reduction' due to low numbers and scheduling another 'Project Management' workshop due to high demand.
Charles brings up the charity committee and asks for creative ideas for Instagram for next year. Due to time limitations, a full brainstorm isn't possible, but Morgan notes it as an action point for everyone to consider and feedback to Charles before the next meeting.
The meeting concludes with thanks for hard work and a plan to meet again next week. The next meeting will be extended to allow for discussion on charity events. Morgan is requested to circulate action items by the end of the day.
