Re: Motion for Strategic Planning Committee

[Jody Nolin <jody.nolin@gmail.com>]

I would like to know the charter for this committee.
Is it strategic in the sense of the direction of AIS vis a vis
organizational issues such as cooperating societies, internal
structure, and operations?  Or more long-range goals for the
organization such as fund raising and membership?
Having been the director of planning for several large agencies, I am
very much in favor of any group thinking strategically and laying out
a framework for the future.  However, I would strongly recommend
defining a clear purpose for this group.  My guess is, given the names
mentioned, that this has already been done.  I have great respect for
the abilities of all of them. Perhaps I missed it.
