NMRT Board Member Planning Report

 

1. Office Name: Networking Director

 

2. Office Term: 2005-2006

 

3. How do you plan to help committees address the four NMRT goals? (If it does not apply, put N/A.)

I plan to encourage involvement and continue to keep in communication with all of my committee chairs in order to help them develop into future leaders. I also hope to continuously offer my encouragement, especially with new chairs.  I hope their experiences this year lead them to further possibilities within NMRT and I hope we offer all of NMRT great networking opportunities with our social functions.

 

4. How do you plan to create a positive committee experience? What type of support do you plan to provide to chairs and committee members, and how often do you plan to provide such support?

I have been in continuous contact with committees so far and plan to continue this pattern. I am especially encouraging the Midwinter Activities committee, as their timeline is the shortest. They have a very active group that are already on top of their planning. I am available by instant messenger to my chairs and also plan to follow up with phone calls by the end of September.

 

5. What future directions do you see your office or NMRT needing to take this year or the following year? What kind of strategies do you envision for addressing projects that affect committees outside of your supervision?

I see nothing different at this point, but that may change as the year continues.
