Re: Few Management Updates

 There is at least one more email chain for management updates - but it seems that this is not updated since February. 

FS - do we have these updates on the blog.

Even content on this chain is not included

Can you scavenge the emails since this was updated and you can post?

Key Issues

Reporting

Has been falling apart for too many - my request to take on weekly TB filtering was ignored in April and subsequently. 

As Supervisors, people are going to take you as an example. It is damaging if you do not follow the rules.

As for the folks who are repeate6-monthly falling short, we have to ask where the supervision is falling short as well. We can improve that but we may have to have some corrective action.

When we penalize staff, there have been negative reactions before. Thus preference is to

part with folks. We have to treat them as adults.

FS - it's time to put out the 6-month Report Format for Jan to Jun - for all but the Interns

TPPI reporting and TB maintenance 

is falling short - it does not reflect our urgent and important needs and the staff are not consulting or representing work.

There are four  clusters

Admin

IT 

Outreach

Research

All of these are falling short - in the TB's and monthly reports. 

Staff

We are quite short with recent departures

ZI, KW, SV

In terms of taking responsibility,

I don't see ZA, UA stepping up when given the opportunity. AM is good at times and not attentive at other times. Key tasks in Web such as fect.lk and fect.mv have not been touched.

ZA - TH last month you had wanted to wait for improvement - As I see it, he is good to go and set up instruments - so we can put him back on that track. I can talk to him after you let me know.

HH and PR seem to have the potential to help administer. 

We shall try out PR and HH to manage some of the TPPI.

To manage  publications,

Given two week WFH, People working for the govt such as

CG and SV may be available to complete our tasks - so we can use them for the pubs work 

Hiring

There is a lot to do - for IT - we can use some Interns - we may have a couple of NIBM interns to check out - if not the NIBM interns look strong - and some may be willing to start earlier than the end of August. 

We do need to hire the

Legal Officer -

Writer

We can include these in the work plans for HR and the respective TB.

Maldives

With SL as is, MV is an opportunity for work going forward. 

We can do a launch there - on the 15th, a new website, maybe a new magazine, DL and a publication by September.

NA has started on the MV SWOT - needs to be cleaned.

She has stated that there is a tone done there so it is an opportunity.

Pl give feedback.

Infrastructure

My requests in the email are going into thin air - e.g - nobody responded about the power switch, power supply,

ZA is not trying to catch up on ZI or taking advantage of him.

Purchases

ZA'sit's support for research for purchases has been perfunctory - its not research he gives but

a final recommendation.
