Shane and I had a super quick and efficient conference call this evening that unfortunately didn’t get recorded because of a technical error. I’ll do my best to summarize what we covered.
First, we’re following a new format for our conference calls. Instead of running through all of our action items, and breaking the discussion down section by section, we’ll instead propose topics on the new agenda throughout the week. Come meeting time, we’ll assign time lengths to the topics and address them one by one. Ideally, our calls will be a little bit more interesting and less monotonous in this format.
We talked about the Green Empowerment workshop this weekend which both Shane and I are attending. Both of us will take copious notes so that we can teach as much as we can to new members at our fall retreat on the first weekend of November. Along these lines, Shane and I will be working together for a full day on Monday to catch up on research and other ODA stuff we’ve dropped the ball on.
Tomorrow, and Thursday, also mark two very busy days for the ODA team. We’ve decided that we would still like to apply to the Staples Youth Social Entrepreneur Competition. The due date is tomorrow at 3 PM Pacific, however, which means we’re going to have to work quickly. I will also be prepping the materials we’ll publish on Thursday, email to list servs, and push around Facebook in order to draw interest to our first community meeting and first advisers meeting. Specifically, we’ll be looking for someone to take on Operations, Finance, Tech, and as many associates as we can handle. We’ve got a neat trick up our sleeve for promotion, too.
Last, but not least, the ODA website will be receiving content upgrades shortly intended to give people a better idea of just what the heck we’re doing.
