Team Charter

Objective: Support timely implementation of the SILS, standardization and localization decisions, documentation of decisions and workflows, and analytics in support of future data-driven decisions and communication.

Roles: Note taking: rotate through by first name. Liz will assign a note taker to each meeting agenda

Time keeping: for now we can keep things informal, if we find we need more structure later we can add it back in

Co-chair: we will need a co-chair by June

What are our expectations for working together?

Assume positive intent
Practice radical candor: sharing opinion directly while caring and being considerate
Be prepared for the meeting and ready to participate
Make room for different styles of communicating (quieter, talkative, etc.), while meetings are happening
Give everyone turn at talking so that everyone has a chance to contribute
Remember that everyone’s input is important and we must remain open to hearing them out
Be sure to stop someone, when you would like further explanation of anything
We want to find solutions that would work the best for everyone, and are willing to comprise on alternatives if not they're not our first choice
Challenges are part of the process and we will attend to them with openness and care
Accept imperfection: while we all want to strive for perfection, it is okay to start somewhere less perfect and continue to finetune
Be ready to learn something new each session!
None of us is an expert in everything, we will need to consult one another and additional stakeholders
Periodically summarize the discussion to make sure everyone is on the same page. This can also clarify where there are differing viewpoints and what needs further discussion
