Checklist to
Assist in The Planning of a Forum
| 1. |
Designate a coordinator. |
| |
If the meeting will bring
together staff from across the country, designating a contact
at the headquarters level works well. |
| 2. |
Select timeframe. |
| |
Is a half-day meeting sufficient?
Would the agency benefit from an extended program? |
| 3. |
Determine focus. |
| |
Training, updates on agency
procedures, special staff conferences, and formulating new directions
are all valuable possibilities. |
| 4. |
Utilize training resources |
| |
Contact with private consultants or
trainers as needed. |
| 5. |
Coordinate with other agencies |
| |
Agencies such as EEOC,
NLRB, OPM, or MSPB may provide important resource information. |
| 6. |
Reserve meeting space |
| |
Work with the NTP Agency Forum Coordinator
to reserve meeting room space and other meeting needs. |
| 7. |
Advertise. |
| |
Provide information to headquarters
and field personnel about meeting logistics, dates, times, lodging
information, the type of preparation is required, and any background
materials needed for use during the meeting. |
