I'm creating a list of things that go with this task, as there are a few more steps than at first glance:

  • Create a new Board Information Document
  • Pick Day of Announcement with Russ and Andrea - May 16
  • Draft Text of Announcement
  • Have Russ review Announcement a few days before Announcement - Russ to Provide by May 15
  • Get a quote from the new President - Yuki to provide by May 13
  • Email Board members asking them to review their content (You can use the Board Checklist to keep track) - Board members to provide by May 13
  • add a general reminder to the Board in the #announcements channel if needed
  • Check with Andrea on a timeline for updating the website (at least a week before announcement)
  • Make the appropriate changes to the Board doc and the Announcement doc on GItHub (It’s important that any issue or pull request that you create is not merged until the date of the announcement. Both you and Andrea will need to agree the process for how you do this.)
  • Set up Slides for the Announcements
  • Talk to Andrea about coordinating translations with local volunteers

Day of Announcement:

  • Announcements should be in the following order:
    • Board & Governance page updated.
    • Announcements page updated.
    • Slack announcement from Russ (where all new Board members/Elected Officers
      and Board members who are stepping down are tagged correctly).
    • Announcement on our social channels where all new and returning Board members/Elected Officers and Board members who are stepping down are correctly tagged.
  • Once you’ve posted on social, share links on the following slack channels:
    • The private #announcement channel for the Board
    • #marketing
    • Share the links as a reply to russ’s announcement on slack about the new Board.
  • Share the slide and a very brief congratulations to the new and returning Board/Elected Officers in the Newsletter.
  • Consider making any Board Members/Officers our ‘Hero of the Month’ where you can thank them for their time and commitment.
