As posted in the Anni forum last week, we will be forming a focus group to discuss possibilities around adding additional protections to future real life events. I am sharing the information below in SA so that everyone has a chance to see what the purpose and expectations are of the group. Membership admins were given a head's up the same day I made the initial post about this, so some groups have already started gathering interested participants.
Focus Group Purpose:
Keeper, Amyrlin, future Cordamora, and optional Executive leadership will moderate the discussion.
Focus Group Member Responsibilities:
Focus Group Purpose:
- To discuss and seek out potential protocols to put in place for future real life events (Spring Fling, Anniversary Party, Euro Party) in order to provide additional layers of protection for our event attendees
- To consider the associated manpower, financial costs, storage, time, etc. needed to implement any suggested protocols
- To advise and make such recommendations to the Events leadership, Keeper, and Amyrlin
- 2 from each Ajah
- 2 from each Company
- 1 Unaffiliated SM
- 2 Junior Members (any combination of Novice, Recruit, Accepted, Soldier that JMs decide upon)
- 1 Citizen
- Events Leadership (MoR-NA, MoR-EU, Director)
Keeper, Amyrlin, future Cordamora, and optional Executive leadership will moderate the discussion.
Focus Group Member Responsibilities:
- Be a voice for your membership group and/or area. While you are a part of your group, you are not the only voice. Be sure to share your group’s thoughts and ideas, and not just your own.
- Communicate regularly within your group and with the Focus Group as a whole. If your communication does not satisfy your respective group, your Membership Administrator may request a change in Focus Group membership for their group.
- Contribute productively to discussions, and be mindful of how others perceive your words. Everyone with access to the Focus Group discussion has the right to state an opinion or share factual information about relevant topics and be heard.
- Membership Administrators will need to send names to me. Please post your representatives in the Membership thread or email keeper@tarvalon.net with names.
- Representatives will be added to the focus group discussion forum on/around December 2, 2022. If your Membership group needs more time to find people and/or decide on volunteers, send/post the names when you have them. This will not be a quick discussion, and being added a few days after discussion starts won't preclude anyone from participating.
- Pacing of the discussion will really depend upon the group. It is not my intent to stifle discussion, so I really don't know how long this will take. But it would be nice to have some sort of recommendations prior to Spring Fling, which will be in spring(ish) 2023.
