Ms. Mattson, this is one of the things that would have been helpful to
<br>
immediately pass along to your successor as I certainly will for mine.
<br>
<br>
Can you please send me anything similar? I have also asked several times
<br>
for your guidance on convention planning without response. I know you are
<br>
crazy busy with petitioning and if necessary I will reinvent the wheel, but
<br>
it should not be that way.
<br>
<br>
I know I need to get a team together etc but I’d really appreciate if you
<br>
would pass along your best practices as well as any additional convention
<br>
forms (such as your excel templates for state by state tallies), manuals
<br>
etc.
<br>
<br>
Similarly I will be guiding Richard on things he must do for region 1 as he
<br>
should not have to reinvent the wheel.
<br>
<br>
Every position should have at least a basic continuity binder. Every
<br>
professional organization does. The fact that we have no such policy or
<br>
agreement to be available to train our successors as part of oath of office
<br>
so to speak is nuts to me.
<br>
