Comment on Resignation of OTW Directors

  1. Thank you oml. It feels like people on the inside are so used to the dysfunction/inaction that they don't realize how bizarre certain statements sound. As for how to convince people to abide by a self-reporting time tracking system, transparency about the goals and methods would help. "We need to track volunteer time to get data on how to make your lives easier; help us help you. We welcome your feedback as we may need to trial different methods of time tracking to meet different volunteer needs; report any feedback to X. In about X months we should have the data we need and you can expect to see results as we make changes based on it." That's clumsy but it at least starts from a place of collaboration with volunteers and lays out clear expectations

    1. Exactly. Clear communication, a clear leader/point person, and starting from a place of good faith & trust in your colleagues gets you a long way.
