Hey @michael, take a look at the first draft of our bylaws here! Would you be available to discuss it next week Thursday between 11 and 2pm?
Yes, I can review and we can discuss at 11 am next Thursday.
I’ll send a calendar invite
Yay!
Also, here’s a 45 minute video training on Sociocracy that’s key to understanding the bylaws and to stepping into the facilitator role: http://sociocracyforall.org/moose/. Check it out.
And, kudos for the quick response. Thought you might like the shout-out.
Michael, could you send that calendar invite? Or, you can pass that task on to me since scheduling is a strength of mine!
Hey I sent the calendar invite Sunday night. Let me check if you got it.
Thanks for checking! I just accepted the calendar invite.
Hey @rachelkate.miller @Far-Pritte and @kddennis,
Michael and I met today to give the bylaws a first pass and it’s now ready for your review! Here’s how to do that
How does that sound?
@rachelkate.miller @Far-Pritte @kddennis, reminder to skim the Bylaws and add comments (or simply respond to this message with a “+1” [that adds a heart to this post ]). @michael and I are meeting tomorrow to finalize our bylaws proposal! We also have a conflict of interest policy that you can (optionally) skim.
AH, I didn’t realize you were meeting today. I was going to read them this weekend, I will try yo read them this morning. Thanks!
Thanks for getting to this! Your comments were super helpful. Take a look at how we responded and let us know what you think! Michael and I are meeting again on Friday, November 1st at 11:45am to review the bylaws one more time and get them ready for the November board meeting.
Sorry about that, I have read over and added some comments.
Update! I just had a conversation with Verónica and Alex, two of our amazing lawyers. They proposed the following:
Will say more at our board meeting tonight to answer any questions and hear any input, but wanted to write it out as well.
@board-circle Our lawyers have returned with draft bylaws! Take a look and leave your comments. Would a deadline of one week from now (December 18th) be reasonable for you all?
@Far-Pritte @rachelkate.miller Reminder to take a look at the draft bylaws by 12/18. Let me know if you need more time.
Hi @board-circle
Apologies for being tardy. I looked through the latest (greatest!) bylaws. I didn’t disagree with anything. I only made two to three proposals.
Could you all look through the comments just to ensure consent
Hey Everyone @board-circle
Just finished reviewing all the bylaws and notes/changes and consider this my sign off on them. Looks great!
Be in touch tomorrow with an updated Flyer!
Cheers, rkm
Hey all @board-circle
The bylaws look great! Made a suggestion here and there but for the most part it was already great.
You all are AWESOME @board-circle! I’ve officially sent our edits to the lawyers, who will look at it and turn it around by next week Thursday. I’ll keep you posted. Good work team.
