Meeting: 13/11/2017 - Management Board (Item 7)

All staff meeting

Oral item

Minutes:

Manon outlined the intention for the all-staff meeting on 15 December. This would be the first opportunity for staff to respond to the capacity review and for the senior team to collectively recognise the specific difficulties of the past week, the pressures of the autumn term, and leave staff with a positive message as to the way forward. The Board discussed the format of the meeting.

 


Meeting: 20/07/2017 - Management Board (Item 5)

Corporate prioritisation and communication - discussion

Oral item

Minutes:

Aligned to the budget situation, Dave Tosh led a discussion on some early thinking on how to improve investment prioritisation, following requests from the Commission and Audit and Risk Assurance Committee (ACARAC) for more visibility of decision making. He and Gareth Watts were developing a set of criteria to demonstrate a proposed method of prioritisation - a way of collectively discriminating between and ranking the high priorities.

A set of proposals would be presented for Management Board to consider, to include a qualitative decision making process to help prioritise and give reassurance to stakeholders on how priorities were determined.

ACTION: Heads to review how they were currently delivering their service plans, to see if it could be done differently to release resource, or not done at all in order to give capacity for new priorities, taking into account impact on other service areas.

The Board then discussed the plan for the all-staff meeting to be held on 21 July.

Meeting: 25/05/2017 - Management Board (Item 6)

Corporate Communications

Oral item

Minutes:

Anna Daniel and Non Gwilym presented the Board with an outline of the options for a corporate communications plan for the rest of the Assembly that would support the ambitious Commission strategy to accomplish the scale of change underway.

The Board considered a timeline of the major work streams, including all the work around electoral reform, Brexit, issues of capacity, public engagement such as around youth parliament and other improvement activities, and added further flags to factor in, such as staff absence peaks. This work would help facilitate effective prioritisation, communications, budget and capacity planning of the major events, whilst continuing to deliver the day to day business to a high standard.

The delivery of the plans would need conveying effectively and in a timely way and the Board received a representation of the end achievements to give context to the additional challenges and a vision to work with.

The Board agreed that Non and Anna would lead a deeper discussion and working out of the interrelated risks at the extended Management Board meeting on 6 July.
