The Ball is in Both Courts

I sent two items to Leah for her review last night. One is the guidelines for selecting interview candidates. This is to be used by the board members in determining who to interview. It also provides some very simple bulletized instructions for emailing the names of the candidates to me for compilation, etc.

The second item is a list of suggested appreciative topics. I had hoped that Leah would work directly with me to develop this particular list. While that hasn't happened, I've now provided her a short list of topics with some thoughts about what kinds of data and stories might come from those topics. At the very least I've given her some choices.

I've scheduled a 30-minute call with her Tuesday so that we can review what I've sent to her.

If all goes well, I will start building the interview protocol tonight. Even though we haven't firmed up the topic, I can develop a scaffold for the inquiry. It will be a small step forward to have an outline, but I'm trying to learn to build these small progressive steps into projects. This inability to move forward until everything is in place has kept me from making progress on large projects in the past. This is a skill I need to build.
