MATCH Shelley Knuth
We would like to get an up to date list of the software that each of the RPs are running. Can Operations assist with getting this list? Otherwise we would need to do a workaround.
CONECT Tim Boerner
Ops leadership team meeting in Rosemont Aug 21-23 for a planning meeting. Note that Ops will not have representation at the Aug 22 EC meeting.
Ops would like to propose adding 2 additional RP reps (elected by the RP Forum) to the EAB to ensure broader representation from RPs in providing program-wide feedback.
We have an opportunity to contract with a consultant to provide a half day (~4-5 hour) DEI workshop. This consultant delivered this workshop to the ICICLE project (~100 participants), and it was well-received. Objectives including open sharing about issues and walking away with a specific action plan. Cost is $10-15K depending on a few factors. Recommendation is to do this in-person adjacent to one of our in-person meetings with the option for team members not attending in-person to participate remotely. Are folks interested in pursuing this? Possibly sharing cost across awards? Thoughts?
