Notes from Dina:

For convenience, here’s what I spoke on in our meeting today:

There’s much to consider in structuring any focus groups for our web presence including:

• Expectations per our KPIs

  • “User group focus group to be conducted every 6 months”

• The status of the Charter for the Web Presence WG

  • Feel the need to move from more technical management to strategic management

    • Some current team members aren’t comfortable with that

• They’d rather just be told what to do, not so much figure out strategy

• Charter indicates EC should assign more strategic folks to that group

• Work being done by the Personas WG

  • These could impact who we SHOULD be including in focus groups

• Updated websites being launched; Support’s recently relaunched and Allocations thinks theirs will be launched in January

• A proposal that I have from our agency to lead focus groups

• The proposal being presented to the EC on 12/19 from SGX3

I think we, as an award, need to be on the same page in how we want to execute. Please let me know how you’d like to proceed in discussing this.
