Luna Team Organizer Welcome

Transcript of the Video

Thank you!

I want to thank you very, very much for stepping up to help be coordinator of things. You’ll have two responsibilities:

  1. Taking care of your team.
  2. Delivering a budget, timeline, and list of information needs.

Taking care of your team:

  • Help them keep a positive attitude! Remind them of the awesome event we’re going to have. If they’re upset, listen and hear them out and let them know they’ve been heard.
  • Lead by example. Model Civic Responsibility, Communal Effort, and Radical Inclusion. If there’s conflict, mediate, or kick it sideways to someone else who can. If you don’t know someone who can help, tag the @acting-executive-committee and we’ll find someone. (We are your team organizer!)
  • Keep them pointed in the right direction. We have an event to get produced by the end of May. You’re herding cats with no formal authority. In a volunteer organization, people have to be having fun. If they aren’t, they’ll leave.

So keep them having fun!

Delivering for Luna:

Other teams and teams-of-teams are counting on you:

  • They’ll need to know your budget, so we can raise the money.
  • They’ll need to know your timeline, so we can coordinate interdependencies.
  • Lastly, we’ll also need to know what information you want from Firefly. They’ve offered to help us by sharing information, but we need to give them a list of the information and resources we want.

If you need help creating a budget or timeline, tag the @acting-executive-committee and we’ll help you learn.

Today!

  1. TODAY: Fill out your team’s entry in our: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ykKOZGcrfPIvLr0PGsCvH941YrYTeKMFt4BEAud9k04/edit?gid=1796651195#gid=1796651195
  2. Introduce yourself and your team on the #team-leads channel

As soon as possible:

  1. Meet with your team. Introduce yourselves. Unify your understanding of your goal: an awesome, incredible event in July.
  2. Create two budgets: minimal (event will fail without this) and what-we-want
  3. Create a rough timeline of what you need to do by when
  4. Make a list of what you need from Firefly

Please have the budgets and timeline ready to share no later than Wednesday, Feb 25.
