[Lnc-business] Listing Ideas Thread

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

I have Starchild's notes from the last LNC meeting which I will be
including as an appendix to our minutes unless there is an objection.

My style is to include more in our minutes than has been done in the past.
Of course that is the final decision of the LNC.  If the LNC decides to
include less I will put out an informal "Secretary's Cut" that has more
detail.  I think we do a disservice to history and our members to have
completely sterile minutes.  I am sure we will all come to a happy medium,
and I of course, will do, what the body desires.

     Hey everyone,
     Starchild wrote me with a good idea to supplement what I said
     earlier about have more inclusion of membership of the party on
     committees, and limiting the LNC involvement. He brought up the need
     for increased transparency from the committees and more regular
     reports to the LNC, so that while we are limiting our involvement in
     the committees (assuming you all agree), there is still direction
     and guidance given as we are the governing body of the party.
     Since I am very big on transparency, I definitely want more of that.
     And while I may want to see more involvement from more people, we
     need to still have the ability to give our input at meetings when
     the committees report.

     So post your ideas, thoughts and stuff here.
     Two Ideas I’ve had I hope we’ll revisit/visit at some point down the
     road are:
     - Outreach Committee (ad hoc): Identity subject experts within the
     party already doing outreach to different segments to create a
     document affiliates and candidates can use on who to reach out to in
     these areas.
     - Retention Committee (ad hoc): Survey new members on why they
     joined,
     survey expired members on why they left and present ideas to the LNC
     to improve retention as well as be a team that those who may be
     frustrated can reach out to. (A team of the nicest people in the
     party
     to keep people from leaving essentially)
     I know everyone is keen to discuss election reform, the Blockchain
     committee should be renewed if at least to work on the compliance
     Guide for candidates.
     I’d also like to hear from the fundraising and tech staff if there
     is
     any new promising investments in software or data that can be used
     to
     increase membership and ground game.

     p.S. List your ideas so this way we can always look back to this
     thread to see we have or haven’t gotten to yet.
