[Lnc-business] Platform Committee appointments - Harlos and Mattson

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

I have done this in an article form for LP News that may be more digestible
I’ll forward.

Ms. Mattson, this is one of the things that would have been helpful to
immediately pass along to your successor as I certainly will for mine.

Can you please send me anything similar?  I have also asked several times
for your guidance on convention planning without response.  I know you are
crazy busy with petitioning and if necessary I will reinvent the wheel, but
it should not be that way.

I know I need to get a team together etc but I’d really appreciate if you
would pass along your best practices as well as any additional convention
forms (such as your excel templates for state by state tallies), manuals
etc.

Similarly I will be guiding Richard on things he must do for region 1 as he
should not have to reinvent the wheel.

Every position should have at least a basic continuity binder.  Every
professional organization does.  The fact that we have no such policy or
agreement to be available to train our successors as part of oath of office
so to speak is nuts to me.
